Morris is a 31-year-old centre-forward at Seattle Sounders, enjoying a standout season — 7 goals and 1 assists in 19 appearances, a Season grade of 37, top 41% of Major League Soccer centre-forwards. On long-term scout potential he's rated 22, ranking 395th of 513 in the Major League Soccer. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option (54.7% of available minutes). He brings 0.7 goal contributions per 90 (0.61 goals, 0.09 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Morris.
Judged on this season alone, Morris graded 37 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 64 of the 64 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer, on 7 goals and 1 assist in 19 appearances (0.696 involvements per 90).
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 49 → 37). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 22, 48th of 64 of the 64 centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer. At 31 Morris is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 3.1 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Morris missed 16 games through injury (hamstring, shoulder) out of roughly 37 this season. The 19 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Below his 2020/21 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Seattle Sounders finished 5th of 15 · an upper-table side
7 goals in 19 appearances (0.37 per game) for an upper-table side. Add 1 assist for 8 goal contributions in all.
Strengths
- Final-third output. 0.7 goal contributions per 90 (0.61 goals, 0.09 assists) — productive for the role.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 54.7% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 22, Morris carries the 48th-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Major League Soccer of 64. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.7 goal contributions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
