Trent Morris was 18-for-24 from the pocket against Cleburne County with 186 passing yards and three touchdowns. He also rushed for 86 yards on 13 carries.

When Trent Morris suffered a broken wrist at a 7-on-7 tournament in the preseason, the Tallassee Tigers were forced to adapt and adjust. 

Even with his injury, Morris was back in Tiger purple and gold in Week 2 against Elmore County. His wrist was wrapped up like a Q-tip, but he found a way to make an impact on the field, breaking up passes and shouting encouragement to his teammates. Morris is only a junior this season, but he is one of Tallassee’s most vocal leaders on and off the field.
