The Saints have been pleased with what theyve seen from LB Dan Morgan in offseason workouts, we hear, and he could push WLB Scott Shanle for a starting spot if he can stay healthy. Morgan, who decided to come back in 2009 after a one-year stint in retirement, has battled injuries for much of his career, including suffering through multiple concussions and a partially torn Achilles tendon that nagged at him throughout the 07 campaign. Shanles play has been steady, but a healthy Morgan would fit the playmaker mold the Saints badly need on defense. Source: Pro Football Weekly
The big IF with Morgan is "can he stay healthy" - If he can he will definately push Shandle since a healthy Morgan is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Scott Shandle. That said Scott has been a consistantly average at the position and we already lost our 4th round pick LB Stanley Arnoux for the season so I really hope Morgan stays healthy
