Out At Redskins Park: Assistant Offensive Line Coach Added

Redskins add Chris Morgan as assistant offensive line coach.


The Redskins have announced the addition of Chris Morgan to the coaching roster.

Morgan spent the last two seasons in the same role for the Oakland Raiders before being relieved by new Raiders head coach Hue Jackson in January of this year.

Morgan was also an offensive lineman at the University of Colorado from 1995-99 where his position coach during his final two seasons was current Seattle Seahawks Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Line Coach Tom Cable. In 2003, Morgan served as a graduate assistant on Cable’s staff at the University of Idaho, where he earned his master’s degree in Educational Leadership. Morgan also coached on Cable’s staff from 2009-2010, when the latter was head coach of the Oakland Raiders.

“Out of all the players that I have coached who have gone into the coaching profession, Chris is the greatest student and finest teacher of what offensive line play is about,” Cable said. “He understands what it takes to buy into the system and buy into the discipline of it.”

As a player at Colorado, Morgan helped the Buffaloes to a 4-0 record in bowl games, including victories in the Cotton, Holiday, Aloha and Insight Bowls. He was named the program’s most improved offensive player in 1998.

Morgan is a native of Killeen, Texas, where he helped Killeen High School to the Texas 5A-1 State Championship in 1991.

If you've been fired, you can live again with the Washington Redskins.

Just make sure you resign Donovan McNabb.

Snyder wants to retain McNabb. That could be the one right decision he's made in years.
