Jordan Morgan open to playing any OL position, but would ‘love to play left tackle’

Packers’ first-round pick Jordan Morgan is fine playing any position along the OL that his new team needs, but he’d prefer to stay at left tackle.

Green Bay Packers rookie Jordan Morgan is excited about the potential opportunity to learn new positions and would be open to playing anywhere his new team needs him, but his preference would be to stay at left tackle, his position for five years at Arizona.

“At the end of the day, I would love to play left tackle and show all my talents and strengths at left tackle because I’ve been there so long, and I feel like that’s where I’ll thrive the most, but any position is fine with me too,” Morgan told Larry McCarren of Packers.com.

Morgan, the 25th overall pick, made 37 starts and played almost 2,500 total snaps at left tackle.

The Packers seem on board with starting Morgan at left tackle — he began rookie minicamp playing there.

Some believed Morgan was destined to move inside at the next level, mostly due to a lack of ideal length (see: arm length) for playing tackle. Dane Brugler of The Athletic had Morgan ranked as his No. 2 overall guard prospect. But Morgan’s athleticism may help him negate any length issues on the outside.

General manager Brian Gutekunst said he thinks Morgan is a potential four position player, meaning he could handle tackle or guard on either side of the offensive line.

Standing in his way of a starting job at left tackle would be Rasheed Walker, who was excellent down the stretch in his first year as the starter last year. The 2022 seventh-round pick could present a strong challenge if he takes a step forward in 2024.

Even if left tackle doesn’t pan out right away, an opening at right guard could fit Morgan in Year 1. Currently, Sean Rhyan is the likely starter. Morgan must prove he’s one of Green Bay’s top five offensive linemen and force the coaches to find a way to get him on the field right away.

“Playing all the positions they want me to play, all the positions I can play, and learn and get all the tools in my toolbelt,” Morgan said.

Packers waiting to pick best position for first-round pick Jordan Morgan

The Green Bay Packers are starting out first-round pick Jordan Morgan at left tackle, the position he played extensively in college, but offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich isn’t in a rush to commit to a position for the rookie.Ā 

The Green Bay Packers are starting out first-round pick Jordan Morgan at left tackle, the position he played extensively in college, but offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich isn’t in a rush to commit to a position for the rookie.

“I wouldn’t say he’s a tackle, I wouldn’t say he’s a guard, I just want to see where he fits best for us and with our best five out there,” Stenavich said Monday. “So that may be at tackle. It might not be. But I’m excited to work with him and you can see his athleticism when he’s out there. He’s a pretty talented guy.”

Morgan got his start at left tackle during rookie minicamp. That could change when the full 90-man roster comes together later in the offseason and into training camp.

The Packers believe Morgan has four position potential, meaning he could play tackle or guard on either side of the line. It’s a projection, but the Packers have a long history of cross-training offensive linemen at multiple positions and turning collegiate left tackle into dominant players elsewhere along the line.

Rasheed Walker returns after a strong second half of the 2023 season, and the Packers’ need at right guard might be far greater than the one at left tackle. But if Morgan’s best position is left tackle, it could be difficult for the Packers to move the first-round pick from a premium spot.

“He’s a natural on the edge. He looks comfortable out there,” Stenavich said. “There’s obviously some technique stuff we’ve got to clean up, just like anybody, but yeah, I’m excited to work with him and just watch him and see.

Morgan played every snap — all 2,153 of them — at left tackle over the last three seasons at Arizona. But many draft evaluators saw the potential in Morgan moving inside to guard; Dane Brugler of The Athletic rated him as his second-best guard in the draft class. Shorter arms and a lack of ideal length represented at least one reason why evaluators predicted a move inside, but neither Morgan nor the Packers are that concerned about his length at tackle considering his movement ability and overall athleticism.

“I was out there today at left tackle,” Morgan said following rookie minicamp. “I’m trying to show that I’m a true left tackle, show that I can be out there on the edge and protect the quarterback.”

As always, the Packers will attempt to configure the “best five” offensive linemen. It’s possible the line will be Walker, Elgton Jenkins, Josh Myers, Morgan and Zach Tom from left to right. Or maybe Morgan wins the job on the left side, Walker moves to the right side and Tom moves inside to guard or center.

Increasing the number of possible combinations is exactly what the Packers want — as many ways to create a good offensive line as possible.

“Very excited about it. I think it’s just a matter of putting the best group out there and there’s a lot of different combinations,” Stenavich said. “We’ll see how it all shakes out. That’s one thing we’re always pretty intentional about is working guys at multiple positions to just see where they fit best. I think that’s kind of what we’ll be doing in OTAs and the early part of camp.”

First-round pick Jordan Morgan will get his start with Packers at LT

The Packers are starting out first-round pick Jordan Morgan at left tackle.

One of the reasons the Packers drafted Jordan Morgan in the first round is because of the versatility that the believe he posseses–able to play both tackle and guard.

However, as Matt LaFleur said after the draft, they are going to start him out at left tackle, which shouldn’t come as a surprise given that is where Morgan played just about all of his 2,400 career snaps at Arizona, not to mention that the Packers used a first-round pick on him.

“I was out there today at left tackle,” said Morgan during Friday’s rookie minicamp media availability. “Iā€™m trying to show that Iā€™m a true left tackle and show Iā€™ll be out there on the edge to protect the quarterback.”

Although Morgan will get the opportunity to prove himself as an NFL tackle, many draft analysts think that he is better suited to play guard because of his arm length, which is under 33 inches. In fact, on Dane Brugler’s big board, Morgan was actually his No. 2 ranked guard.

But Morgan is out to prove those doubters wrong by making his mark in the NFL at the tackle position.

“I get that a lot ā€“ the short arms stuff,” said Morgan. “Itā€™s like you obviously havenā€™t watched film. I use them pretty well. I move people off the ball. I pass set really well, protect the quarterback. You see the stats. That doesnā€™t bother me, though. Iā€™m just gonna prove everybody wrong.”

Bouncing back quickly from a late-season ACL injury in 2022, Morgan put together an impressive 2023 season with Arizona, allowing just two sacks and 14 pressures. Among all tackles, Morgan ranked 19th in pass-blocking efficiency and 16th in run-blocking grade.

“I just didnā€™t care about arm length,” said Morgan. “I didnā€™t really think it was a big deal coming into college and hearing about it. They put me at left tackle. They thought I was a great left tackle. Sure enough, I was.”

Regardless of where Morgan ends up on the offensive line, he gives the Packers options and flexibility as they strive to put their “best five” on the field.

Morgan can provide competition for Rasheed Walker at left tackle, who, as both LaFleur and offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich have mentioned, needs to be more consistent.

Whether it’s Morgan or Walker who is the starting left tackle, the other could be given the opportunity to compete at right tackle, freeing the Packers up to move Zach Tom inside.

Or perhaps the Packers give Morgan a chance at right guard, where competition is needed for Sean Rhyan, who was up and down last season in pass protection.

Ultimately, we won’t have the answers to any of these questions until training camp begins and we see Morgan, Walker, Rhyan, and others competing in pads on the football field.

But before there is any potential transition for Morgan from one side of the line to the other or playing inside instead of outside, he is going to have the opportunity to be a left tackle–which Morgan absolutely believes he is.

“So my goal right now,” added Morgan, “is to gain the trust of all the coaches, all the coaching staff, the players, show everybody that Iā€™m the player they think I am and I could pick this stuff up and be able to play.”

Green Bay Packers 2024 first-round pick: OL Jordan Morgan

The Packers selected Arizona OL Jordan Morgan in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft.

The Green Bay Packers selected Arizona offensive lineman Jordan Morgan in the first round (No. 25 overall) of the 2024 NFL draft.

Height: 6-5
Weight: 311
Age: 22
From: Marana, AZ

College profile

Breakdown: 37-game starter at left tackle and two-time All-Pac 12 pick. Lacks ideal arm length for offensive tackle (under 33ā€³) but is a terrific athlete overall. Wide, well-built frame with huge hands. Two-time team captain. Tore ACL in 2022 but returned to be a top player in 2023. The Packers think he has the athleticism, strength and intelligence to play both sides of the line at offensive tackle and guard. Expected to get a chance at left tackle but could compete to start at right guard right away.

Unpacking Future Packers: No. 7, Arizona OL Jordan Morgan

Dane Bruglerā€™s scouting report: ā€œA four-year starter at Arizona, Morgan was a constant at left tackle in offensive coordinator Brennan Carrollā€™s zone -based scheme (Carroll is the son of Pete Carroll and was the assistant offensive line coach for the Seattle Seahawks from 2015-21). After Arizona won a combined five games during his first three seasons on campus, Morgan helped lead the programā€™s turnaround in 2023 (Arizona won 10 games in a season for just the second time since 1998). A quick-footed blocker, Morgan displays range and aggression in the run game and gets on top of rushers quickly in his jump sets when he uses well-timed hands. His struggles in pass protection come when he is overaggressive with his kickslide and gets too far up the arc, which can create a two-way go for rushers and open the door for inside counters. Overall, Morgan struggles to anchor mid-slide versus power, but he is a balanced mover who is well-schooled and physical in all phases. Though he can survive at tackle in the NFL, his skill set projects much better inside at guard, similar to Matthew Bergeron.ā€

Daniel Jeremiah’s scouting report: “Morgan is a very athletic left tackle with average size. In pass pro, he is quick out of his stance to meet and cover up speed rushers. He can sink his weight and drop levels when bull rushed. He also does a nice job re-working his hands when he gets knocked back to regain leverage. He struggles to redirect inside when facing counter moves, getting beat on that inside shoulder too often. He also will occasionally duck his head, which is correctable. In the run game, he is more finesse than power. He can use his quickness to cut off the back side and he takes excellent angles to the second level to wall off linebackers. He doesn’t have a lot of knock-back power to displace defenders over his nose. Morgan is just over a year removed from ACL surgery, and I’m hopeful he can add more strength/power now that he’s healthy. Overall, he has starting tackle ability.”

Lance Zierlein’s scouting report: “Three-year starter who displayed his resilience and work ethic by coming back and playing good football after suffering a torn ACL late in the 2022 season. Morgan is both fluid and flexible in space, with the ability to help spring running plays with second-level blocks and play-side lead blocking. He fails to secure back-side cutoffs too frequently, but improving his pad level and landmarks might fix that issue. His punch approach diminishes his pass protection length and causes him to lose connection at the top of the rush. He will need to get his hands and feet synced up in order to improve his balance and consistency against athletic rushers. Heā€™s a capable run blocker and pass protector, and he features projectable upside with more work. Morgan has the traits and talent to become a solid starting left tackle.”

They said it: ā€œBig man, left tackle, really good athlete, can play out in space. Ability to play all four positions for us. Been a left tackle mainly there but we think he can move inside to guard. He has power in his lower body, can move people off the spot. Heā€™s just wired like a Packer. Two-time team captain. A really good dude.ā€ ā€” GM Brian Gutekunst

Highlights

New Packers OL Jordan Morgan will wear No. 77

Offensive lineman Jordan Morgan, the Green Bay Packers’ first-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft, will wear the No. 77 uniform with his new team.

Offensive lineman Jordan Morgan, the Green Bay Packers’ first-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft, will wear the No. 77 uniform with his new team.

Morgan wore No. 77 in high school and during all five seasons at Arizona.

Kadeem Telfort, a 2023 undrafted free agent, is also still listed as wearing No. 77 on the Packers’ official roster. It’s possible Telfort could switch to No. 76, a number he wore in college (Florida) which is now open after Jon Runyan Jr. departed in free agency.

Morgan, a first-rounder, got his preferred number.

Former players to wear No. 77 in Green Bay: Cullen Jenkins, Billy Turner, Ron Kostelnik, Mike Butler, Tony Mandarich, John Michels, Adam Pankey.

Morgan made 37 starts at left tackle for Arizona. He was a two-time All-Pac 12 pick (2022, 2023) and two-time team captain. Morgan started games at left tackle during all five seasons at Arizona, including as a true freshman in 2019.

The Packers made Morgan the No. 25 overall pick in the first round.

Packers believe first-round pick Jordan Morgan can play 4 positions along OL

The Packers think first-round pick Jordan Morgan can play both offensive tackle spots and both offensive guard spots at the NFL level.

Versatility was a huge selling point for the Green Bay Packers on first-round pick Jordan Morgan, who the team believes can play both offensive tackle spots and both offensive guard spots at the next level.

Morgan played exclusively at left tackle at Arizona, making 37 starts. Entering the draft, he was considered by many to be one of the top guard prospects in the class.

Thanks to quick feet and his overall athletic profile, the Packers are confident Morgan can overcome shorter-than-desired arm length (just under 33″) and play tackle in the NFL. And general manager Brian Gutekunst believes Morgan (6-5, 311) has the traits — in terms of quickness and power — to slide inside and play guard against bigger players.

[affiliatewidget_smgtolocal]

ā€œLeft tackle feet. Very athletic kid. Really sturdy, strong lower body. Did 27 reps on the bench press, so heā€™s a really strong athlete,” Gutekunst said.
“When you move inside, things move a little quicker and you handle a little more power, and heā€™s certainly shown an ability to do that.ā€

The Packers return both starting offensive tackles from last year in Rasheed Walker and Zach Tom, but Walker — a 2022 seventh-round pick — only came on during the second half of last year and Tom has five-position versatility. At guard, the Packers need to replace multi-year starter Jon Runyan Jr. on the right side. Morgan could provide valuable depth at tackle and a potential immediate starter at right guard.

In Morgan, Tom and starting left guard Elgton Jenkins, the Packers have three versatile players to mix and match along the offensive line.

“Having guys who can play multiple spots that are athletic enough to do it and strong enough to do it and smart enough to do it, it gives you a lot of comfort,” Gutekunst said.

Morgan checked all the boxes. The 22-year-old has over three seasons of experience at left tackle and a strong athletic profile, and his versatility and leadership potential (team captain at Arizona) fit what the Packers look for.

“Versatile offensive lineman like we like. Really athletic. We feel he can play four positions for us. Two-time team captain. Our kind of guy.”

Jordan Morgan follows Brian Gutekunst’s first-round trends

Big, athletic and young, with positional versatility: Jordan Morgan follows the first-round trends of Packers GM Brian Gutekunst.

The Green Bay Packers taking Arizona offensive tackle Jordan Morgan at No. 25 overall might have caught some surprise during the end of Thursday night’s first round, but Morgan — a young, elite athlete with versatility — perfectly fits what general manager Brian Gutekunst has looked for in a first-round pick since taking the job in 2018.

Like all but one first rounder before him, Morgan is 22 years old or younger and has a Relative Athletic Score above 8.0 — 9.24 out of 10.0 as an offensive tackle and 9.83 out of 10.0 as a guard. Under Gutekunst, the Packers have prioritized finding young, elite athletes in the first round to maximize potential and return on investment at a crucial part of the draft.

[affiliatewidget_smgtolocal]

Here’s the new updated first-round chart for Gutekunst:

Year Name Pos School Pick RAS Age
2018 Jaire Alexander CB Louisville 18 9.54 21
2019 Rashan Gary EDGE Michigan 12 9.95 21
2019 Darnell Savage S Maryland 21 8.35 21
2020 Jordan Love QB Utah State 26 8.46 21
2021 Eric Stokes CB Georgia 29 9.38 22
2022 Quay Walker LB Georgia 22 9.63 21
2022 Devonte Wyatt DL Georgia 27 9.60 24
2023 Lukas Van Ness EDGE Iowa 13 9.39 21
2024 Jordan Morgan OT Arizona 25 9.24 22

Gutekunst said the Packers debated moving down in the first round but ultimately felt Morgan was too good to risk losing.

“Where we had him valued, this was a pretty easy decision for us,” Gutekunst said.

Morgan isn’t just young and athletic — he fits what the Packers look for in an offensive lineman. He started 37 games in college at left tackle, ran the 40-yard dash in 5.04 seconds and put up 27 reps in the bench press. Experienced, fast and strong. He might fit better by moving inside to guard, where his lack of arm length could be negated some, but the Packers believe he can play both tackle spots and both guard spots at the next level. Gutekunst called him a four-position player along the offensive line.

“Having guys who can play multiple spots that are athletic enough to do it and strong enough to do it and smart enough to do it, it gives you a lot of comfort,” Gutekunst said.

Morgan’s arms measured in at just under 33″ long. It wasn’t a worry for Gutekunst and the Packers.

“The longer the better, but weā€™ve had a bunch of guys who have played outside without prototypical arm length and been fine. What makes up for it is usually feet and athleticism, and thatā€™s what Jordan has.”

Highlights of new Packers OL Jordan Morgan

Highlights of OL Jordan Morgan, the Packers’ first-round pick of the 2024 NFL draft.

The Green Bay Packers selected Arizona offensive lineman Jordan Morgan with the 25th overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. The selection gives the Packers an athletic and versatile offensive lineman who could potentially compete to start at right guard or tackle as a rookie.

Morgan, a two-time All-Pac 12 pick, was a 37-game starter at Arizona.

Here are some top highlights of the Packersā€™ first-round pick:

Instant 2024 NFL Draft grades: Green Bay Packers select Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona

Instant 2024 NFL Draft grades: Green Bay Packers select Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona

The Green Bay Packers renew the run on offensive lineman by taking yet another pass protector and help sure up a shaky line with the selection of Arizona offensive tackle Jordan Morgan.

Morgan projects as an immediate starter opposite of Rasheed Walker. The Packers struggled to find an answer last season at the right tackle spot and secure that here with the selection of Morgan.

A huge human who is athletic, productive, and with plenty of room to grow into his role, Morgan is going to be a plug and play right tackle with the potential to eventually move over to the left side of the line. Morgan is a solid pick for a team desperate for tackle help.
