Jordan Morris was once a bright homegrown prospect for the Sounders. He went to play in Europe, but returned after an injury. He has made multiple appearances for the USMNT.
He was promoted to a designated player and now has more goals than any other player while wearing the Sounders' kit. It should be no surprise that he is the key to their attack, but his most recent return has demonstrated the significance of his impact.
While Albert Rusnak and Christian Roldan have been the most consistent players for the Rave Green this season, it was the absence of Morris due to multiple hamstring injuries that made the Sounders attack look like it was stuck in the mud.
