Corner, Nickel, Wherever, Trey Morrison Just Wants To Play Football

Posted Aug 7, 2019
After a breakout freshman season for North Carolina, expectations for Trey Morrison are high entering the 2019 season. The only difference for the Norcross, GA, native is he won’t exclusively be playing the same nickelback position where he excelled last year. Instead, he’s seeing more time at cornerback, one of the Tar Heels’ thinnest position groups. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
