PENSACOLA, Fla. — The Arizona Cardinals are expected to sign former Pine Forest High School standout Alfred Morris, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The team plans to bring in Morris to add depth to an injury-depleted backfield. David Johnson is dealing with an ankle injury and D.J. Foster a hamstring issue, leaving Chase Edmonds as the only healthy running back on the roster.
Morris was in training camp this year with the Dallas Cowboys but was cut before the regular season. He worked out with the Cardinals in September but was not signed at that time.
Morris played for San Francisco last season, rushing for 428 yards and two touchdowns. He spent four seasons (2012-15) with Washington and two (2016-17) with the Cowboys.
