Over the course of 51 regular-season games (all with the Bengals) Morgan has caught just five passes for 29 yards. This coming season, the 27-year-old, who was born in New Orleans, will provide the Saints with some needed depth at wideout and on special teams.

Bengals' Stanley Morgan: Back with active roster
Rotowire
The Bengals elevated Morgan to their active roster Saturday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Stanley Morgan: Cut by Bengals
Rotowire
The Bengals released Morgan on Tuesday, Geoff Hobson of the team's official website reports.
Morgan has been a core special teams member for the Bengals since joining the league in 2019. However, the team has opted to go in a more youthful direction in that department, and the 26-year-old is a casualty of that decision. It remains to be seen if he will be kept around on the team's practice squad or have to look for a fresh start somewhere else.

Rotowire
Morgan played five snaps on offense and 21 on special teams in Sunday's 27-16 win over the Ravens, accruing no statistics during the contest.
Morgan saw snaps on offense during all 14 of his appearances of the regular season, but never more than 10 on any occasion. He drew just one incomplete target over that stretch to finish without a reception for the season. Morgan will likely continue to see most of his playing time on special teams during Cincinnati's upcoming playoff run.

Morgan has missed back-to-back games due to a hamstring injury, but he's trending in the right direction after returning to practice Wednesday.

Rotowire
Morgan (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Bengals' Stanley Morgan: Plays early in preseason finale
Rotowire
Morgan caught one of two targets for 32 yards in Saturday's 16-7 preseason win over the Rams.
The first pass thrown Morgan's way was an incompletion on the opening drive, but it was a good sign for his standing on the depth chart that he was used early in the game. Morgan then opened the second possession with a 32-yard catch. He's likely to remain on the team in a depth role when the Bengals trim their roster down to 53 players for the regular season.

Stanley Morgan: Set to become free agent
Rotowire
Morgan won't be tendered by the Bengals, so he'll become a free agent when the new league year starts March 16, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Morgan appeared in all 17 of the Bengals' regular season games, but he wasn't a factor during their playoff run due to a hamstring issue. Regardless, he operated mostly on special teams and caught just two of four targets for 11 yards during the 2021 campaign. It's unclear what type of market the 25-year-old wideout will garner in free agency.

Bengals' Stanley Morgan: Dealing with hamstring issue
Rotowire
Morgan (hamstring) was limited at practice Thursday and Friday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports.
Morgan has missed all three of the Bengals' previous postseason matchups due to a lingering hamstring injury. However, the positive news is that the wideout has finally been able to return to practice, albeit in limited fashion.

Rotowire
Morgan (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's contest against the Chiefs, Marisa Contipelli of the Bengals' official site reports.

Morgan was also limited during each of Cincinnati's practice sessions last week before being ruled out for the divisional-round matchup against the Titans.
