Opening week is now upon us and Gareth got to speak to star running back Morgan Ellison prior to their opening game vs the DC defenders at Audi field. Gareth and Morgan discussed about how excited he was about the upcoming season. One topic that Morgan discussed was about the powerful offence they have in Seattle. Morgan said,

It’s very exciting having leadership like that in Ben DiNucci. I am able to ask him things and go over different plays on offence and stuff and have that leadership on the team. I’m just excited to be a part of it and see guys like Josh Gordan. So listening to those guys and being an ear and learning what I can while I’m here.

They discussed the experience of the head coach and how he has helped his game so far and the energy he brings. They also discussed the lack of familiarity between each of the rosters in the XFL. He talked about him and Knox being from the same home town and knowing each other well.

They also discussed what Sea Dragon fans can expect from Morgan. he said,

Just a guy who loves football, a hard runner, a team player and someone who will do anything to help his team win games. That is whatever, blocking, running the ball, doing whatever. Catching the ball, making exciting plays and hopefully not going down on 1 tackle ever, just some JUICE.

They also discussed how the opportunity of the XFL came about and how he became a member of the Seattle Sea Dragons. The passion of the Sea Dragon fans was also discussed and Morgan said about playing in front of them,

I started watching YouTube videos from the old Seattle games just to see what it was like and experience it. I’m excited to go and interact and engage and bring them into the games whatever that will be. We’ve got to score some touchdowns first as nothing else matters till we start winning and scoring some points but we will start having some fun. I’m ready

They discussed the rivalry in the North divisions with 3 former XFL 2.0 teams and how those rivalry’s and Seattle having the first home game during the shorter week.

Morgan is someone we can see doing big things in the XFL this year and thank him for his time.
