Tyler Morgan, a running back out of Ohio, runs as if the ground did something personal to him. He is an angry, angry running back.
A junior running back out of Central Catholic (Toledo, Ohio), Morgan produced an impressive touchdown run late in the first quarter of what would be a 41-6 win in the playoffs over Columbian. With the win, Central Catholic is now 14-0.
Morgan’s 34-yard touchdown run begins with him nearly being taken down in the backfield, but he manages to evade his way out of the situation and bounce outside to his right.
There he found space and used his speed to get into the open field.
And then at the 10-yard line, the announcers declare that Morgan is taken down, only for the running back to break through – “No they won’t!” as he then runs the final few yards untouched into the end zone.
Oh you’ve got to be KIDDING. 😳
RB Tyler Morgan you are a MONSTER. 🔥

It was a strong individual effort from Morgan to put Central Catholic up 14-6 at the time. He shrugged off four tackles for the touchdown run.
Unnoticed in all the buzz about his strength is that Morgan showed some glimpses of his 4.48 speed during this run.
