Joshua Morgan's open letter to 49ers fans | Page 3

jreff22 · 2011-10-14T21:30:13-07:00

"I really appreciate all the love and support! It's been really hard to deal with because I've never been injured like this, and especially at this point and time. I was the leading WR on the team and proving all the critics wrong about me, and I was in my contract year. And now this. But I'm named after Joshua in the Bible for a reason. I'm a strong, courageous human being, and I've overcome every obstacle before me and come back better, stronger and wiser every year. "I love the game and love the Bay Area and the organization. I feel like I let everybody down by this injury and sincerely apologize. Trust and know I'm doing my best and everything I can to heal as quick and smart as possible and come back like I always do -- better and stronger to prove all my critics wrong. I will continue to keep climbing and try to join the names of the other great 49er WRs in the past and bring a Super Bowl or two or three back to the Bay. That's my ambition, my addiction and my motivation! I've always been addicted to success and addicted to greatness. But, in ending, I wanna thank all the fans for all your support and well wishes!" --Joshua Morgan http://www.csnbayarea.com/blog/niners-talk/post/Joshua-Morgans-open-letter-to-49ers-fans?blockID=577710&feedID=5884

Edwards has missed all but 1 series of the last 4 games. So the fact that he has more yards than Ginn and Williams isn't really worth mentioning IMO.

Perhaps instead of lifting himself up he should have instead claimed that the other WR's on the team "quit".

I especially like the part about bringing a Super Bowl or two or three back to the bay area.

Too bad we'll have to get the first one without him.

Good s**t Josh!

Classy thoughts from a quality guy. Here's to a speedy recovery and a happy return next year.

Don't knock him for mentioning he was the leading receiver, he was pointing out how everything was clicking him for great and so the injury is even more heartbreaking.

I'm proud to say I've been the owner of this jersey for three years now. I wore it once to family day and once to training camp and both times he's walked from across the field straight over to me, signed the jersey, took a picture, and thanked me for my support. One of the days he wasn't even signing autographs but staying late running routes, and still ran over to thank me (spotted the jersey) and ran back to keep working. Every year I get so much s**t from "fans" for owning his jersey. Very classy and gifted young player, why not?
