## Early life and recruiting
Morris is from Kingsland, Georgia, and played four years of varsity offensive line at Camden County High School. His father introduced him to football; he began with flag football at age five and played defensive line after moving to tackle football. He concluded his high school career as a four-star recruit and graduated with a 4.75 GPA.[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/)
He committed to the [University of Georgia](https://www.edgepedia.org/university-of-georgia) when he was 15 years old and stayed with the commitment despite other scholarship offers and coaching changes at the school.[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/) Recruiting services rated him a four-star offensive tackle prospect in the 2021 class.[6](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25404715-micah-morris-nfl-draft-2026-scouting-report-philadelphia-eagles-iol)
## College career at Georgia
Morris appeared in 48 games with 19 starts over five seasons at Georgia (2021–25), playing on two [College Football Playoff](https://www.edgepedia.org/college-football-playoff) national championship teams (2021 and 2022) and helping the program win three SEC titles (2022, 2024, and 2025).[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/) He did not start in his first three seasons, saw some action at right guard in 2024, and then started at left guard throughout 2025.[7](https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/26698200/micah-morris/) His path to playing time was slowed by teammates who became early [NFL draft](https://www.edgepedia.org/nfl-draft) picks, including Tate Ratledge and [Dylan Fairchild](https://www.edgepedia.org/dylan-fairchild).[8](https://acdolphins.com/2026/03/04/high-ceiling-ol-prospect-flying-under-the-radar/)
**The 2025 season.** As a redshirt senior, Morris started all 14 games at left guard and was the only Georgia offensive lineman to start every game. He did not allow a sack in pass protection, and Georgia's offense averaged 32.1 points, 182.1 rushing yards, and 220.3 passing yards per game on the way to a 12-2 record. The Bulldogs won the SEC Championship over Alabama and lost to Ole Miss in the College Football Playoff Quarterfinal at the [Sugar Bowl](https://www.edgepedia.org/sugar-bowl).[2](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/eagles-micah-morris-2026-nfl-draft-guard-georgia) During the regular season the offense ranked third in the NCAA in first downs (316) and first nationally in fourth-down conversion rate (76.5%).[2](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/eagles-micah-morris-2026-nfl-draft-guard-georgia) He blocked for quarterback Gunnar Stockton, who finished in the top eight of [Heisman Trophy](https://www.edgepedia.org/heisman-trophy) voting that season.[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/) His 2025 snap counts were 369 in pass protection and 332 in run blocking.[5](https://steelersdepot.com/2026/04/2026-nfl-draft-scouting-report-georgia-og-micah-morris/)
Morris majored in learning design and technology during his undergraduate studies at Georgia.[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/)
## Draft evaluation
At the 2026 [NFL Scouting Combine](https://www.edgepedia.org/nfl-scouting-combine), Morris ran an official 5.09-second 40-yard dash with a 1.73-second 10-yard split, jumped 29.5 inches in the vertical and 112 inches in the broad jump, and pressed 225 pounds 29 times, at 6 feet 5 inches and 334 pounds with 33.625-inch arms and 10.375-inch hands.[4](https://draftgradebook.com/prospects/micah-morris-2026-scouting-report) His Relative Athletic Score of 9.97 was the second highest among guards in the class.[5](https://steelersdepot.com/2026/04/2026-nfl-draft-scouting-report-georgia-og-micah-morris/)
Scouts described a massive, wide-bodied guard who wins with size, strength, and positioning rather than mobility. His anchor in pass protection was widely cited as his calling card; one evaluation credited him with zero sacks allowed in 909 career snaps at left guard.[8](https://acdolphins.com/2026/03/04/high-ceiling-ol-prospect-flying-under-the-radar/) Recurring criticisms included limited range as a run blocker, discomfort operating in space or on pulls, inconsistent hand placement, and vulnerability to quicker interior rushers and counter moves.[4](https://draftgradebook.com/prospects/micah-morris-2026-scouting-report) • [5](https://steelersdepot.com/2026/04/2026-nfl-draft-scouting-report-georgia-og-micah-morris/) Evaluators projected him as a developmental, scheme-specific guard with starting upside, best suited early to gap and power running schemes.[6](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25404715-micah-morris-nfl-draft-2026-scouting-report-philadelphia-eagles-iol) • [9](https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Micah-Morris-OL-Georgia) He cross-trained at both guard spots during his Georgia career and competed in the 2026 Shrine Bowl.[10](https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/philadelphia-eagles-analysis/175363/eagles-film-review-micah-morris-is-a-developmental-gamble) • [6](https://bleacherreport.com/articles/25404715-micah-morris-nfl-draft-2026-scouting-report-philadelphia-eagles-iol)
Eagles general manager [Howie Roseman](https://www.edgepedia.org/howie-roseman) said at the draft that Morris stood out on the team's board for his size, testing, and experience playing in the SEC.[2](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/eagles-micah-morris-2026-nfl-draft-guard-georgia)
## NFL career
Morris provides depth at guard behind Landon Dickerson and Tyler Steen on the Eagles' roster.[7](https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/26698200/micah-morris/) His first training camp was interrupted by injuries: he suffered a hamstring injury in early August 2026, then a shoulder injury, and returned to full practice participation by September 9, 2026, ahead of the regular-season opener.[7](https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/26698200/micah-morris/) Through the first five weeks of the 2026 season he had appeared in three games without a start.[3](https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/players-roster/micah-morris/)
