The seven-year veteran, who has not played since suffering a partially torn Achilles tendon in the third game of the season, was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, the latest setback in a star-crossed career.
A first-round choice in the 2001 draft, the seven-year veteran has never appeared in more than 13 games in a season. The latest injury means that Morgan, 28, will have appeared in just four games the past two seasons. He missed all but one contest in 2006 because of a concussion suffered in the opening game.
