1967 Profile: Joe Morrison

Flanker
No. 40
Cincinnati
"It is to the chagrin of Giant fans that Joe Morrison has never made All-Pro, All-East or even played in the Pro Bowl game. Yet he's the Giants' most valuable player, a selfless performer who has always placed the needs of the team above his own.
Although Joe seemed to have made a home for himself at flankerback, he readily returned to duty as a running back last season when injuries depleted the Giant backfield - and he also took a crash course in quarterbacking when an emergency arose there. He played quarterback in college, but since coming to the NFL in 1959, he has played halfback, fullback, and defensive back, as well as flanker.
As a pass catcher last season, he caught 46 throws for 724 yards and six touchdowns."

-Jack Zanger Pro Football 1967

"'Mr. Everything' for the Giants, Joe has played six positions on both offense and defense.
In '66 Joe had his best year with 46 grabs for 724 yards and six touchdowns. He also ran for 275 yards on only 67 rushes and scored twice."

"You name it, Joe has done it. During 1966 he carried, caught, took to the air ... and more."
