He played for Birmingham, Coventry City and Crystal Palace in the Football League, and was capped once for a Football League representative side.

He set up the second goal for Bob Whittingham in a 3–1 win, and according to the Daily Express reporter, "the pick" of the English XI were Morgan, Whittingham and Joe Clennell.
