Alfred Morris finds the satisfaction the Redskins still seek
LANDOVER — There was always beauty in simplicity for Alfred Morris. For four seasons with the Washington Redskins, one-cut-and-go was a model he used often and to great effect. In three of those four seasons in burgundy and gold, he ran for more than 1,000 yards.
He replaced his Redskins uniform with the blue star of Dallas Cowboys as a free agent in the offseason, which made Sunday all the sweeter. When he stuck his right foot in the ground late in the fourth quarter, Morris was taking the final steps to cap another harrowing week for the Redskins’ defense. He veered right, then ahead for a 5-yard touchdown. Morris celebrated with his familiar post-touchdown home run swing.
