Coach Sean Payton announced the moves Tuesday

New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton announced Tuesday that the team had signed tight end Tom Crabtree and placed wide receiver Joe Morgan on the reserve/suspended list.

New Orleans Saints sign TE Tom Crabtree, place Joe Morgan on reserve/suspended list

What's wrong with this guy?

Sean is patient man.
He must have done something really bad.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Well he obviously did something to piss coach off. Maybe the reason we haven't seen him this year. John Jenkins finally got off the **** list and is starting to contribute.

Don't piss Payton off.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

They signed TE Tom Crabtree in the wake of Morgan being added to the Reserve/Suspended list...

I'm thinking Crabtree must be a really good blocker...

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

but...we have no depth at WR

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Tanner.... where are you?

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

We have 5 WR's still on the active roster, and Coleman and Jones on the PS. We'll be fine.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Morgan may be related to the DUI they never suspended him from that. May just have concluded.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Coach not taking any crap last few weeks. Cutting a mud draft pick for bring late niw this. Making a point with expendable players

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I'm thinking we may be in the market for a WR or two come this offseason. The Nick Toon experiment is done and I don't see him back next year. Meachem has a whole 4 receptions this season and has been pretty nonexistent. Now Morgan is suspended, for whatever reason, which can't bode well for him.

There's always Brandon Coleman and Seantavius Jones on the PS and maybe they'll develop more. Both have great size at 6'6 and 6'3, respectively. But I can see us taking a later round WR in the draft as well

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

That sounds like a pretty good guess.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I hope you are correct, but
our #4 receiver has 4 receptions
our #5 has zero

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

We can run 2 TE sets with Hill or Watson and have Cadet and Thomas catching out the backfield so im not too worried unless we get a injury

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

We have legit #2 and #3 guys for years to come. We need true #1 .

Colston 2015 cap hit 9,7 dead money 5,4
2016 cap hit 10,5 dead money 2,7

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Right now, I'm loving me some Stills & Cooks. Some of those catches by them 2 the other night were pretty impressive. Colston still looks a little "off" for some reason or another. Meachem...ugh. Morgan needs to "get right"...right now, he can't get right. Morgan needs to get right.

As much as we throw to our TEs & RBs in this offense, having a clear-cut #1 WR is a luxury, but not necessarily a necessity. My opinion, obviously...

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I would bet my ass it was public drunkenness or something like that.

I like Joe Morgan and had high hopes for him. I sincerely hope he gets his life together!

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Morgan issued a one-word response of sorts on his verified Twitter page.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

well that answers the were is joe mystery. he is the sofa like the rest of us

On the bright side we still got TOON

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Selling insurance as his talent warrants.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

He's on IR.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Only as a classy move by Saints management to allow for his medical expenses to be covered. His attempted playing days are over.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

If I was the boss of that douche bag in the back ground playing around on his cell phone I would fire his arse. I hate that crap. He can tweet a couple feet outside of the field of view.


Oh and I would nail the chick on the right.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

He's not on injured reserve; he's on the suspended list... Pretty much means his Saints career is over since he is a free agent at the end of this year...

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

Oh, give the man some slack...

He was just writing "LOL...OMG! cant beleve im up here w/SP!!!! shout out to my Bieber buds #ishouldstabmyselfintheface"

Fairly innocent stuff. BTW, I hate that crap as well.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I'm pretty sure we can re-instate him from the suspended list at any time. Right?

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I think so; not sure if the league or team suspended or for how long though

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

A fairly reliable source (another poster over at the evil empire) said he was showing up at meetings drunk and was late to a few as well.

Its all still speculation and rumors so... grain of salt.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I was just about to put "so no news on why he's been suspended?" lol

Well after the DUI, showing up for a meeting drunk is the kind of thing that would lead SP to do something like this.

Like you said, grain of salt, but I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be true.

Re: WR Joe Morgan Suspended (Payton Press Conf)
 

I hate posting rumors because I've seen false rumors reference as fact down the road, like the rumor that Joe Horn slept with Roaf's wife. Turned out it was Joe Johnson but many still post remarks about Joe Horn sleeping with players' wives and its totally unfair to Joe Horn.

Just thought it might be worth mentioning tho.
