I remember going to Pace University to watch the Gmen in pre season training. It was Joe's rookie season and I was there for their first full pads scrimmage. On one of his first carries they ran him to LT's side and Lawrence just crumpled him. Welcome to the NFL kid. Anyway, what I loved about Joe and most of the rest of that Giants team (with the exception of perhaps McConkey who just couldn't help himself) was that he scored he'd just give the ball back to the ref and run back to the sideline. These days players celebrate every 3rd play of the game as if they'd won the Super Bowl. Joe Morris and Mark Bavaro. Stoic and punishing. What a team.
Back when it was a man’s game. Joe was small but strong as a beast he could squat almost 600 lbs. met him once at an autograph thing. nice and humble as can be...i asked him to sign something for my redskins fan uncle he smiled big and said “that ain’t right, doggin’ on you uncle”.
Joe was small in stature but had a heart as big as Giant stadium!
Met Joe myself, back in the nineties. What was striking was how a man of such stature and accomplishment was so humble.

First college game I saw as a freshman in the Rutgers Bands was in 82 against Syracuse. Joe Morris was their RB
Well earned. Man's a legend n my book. Champion.
“Your Father’s Classic” as I’m showing my 15 year old son one of the all time great Giants. You can’t beat that.
My fave running back ever..I'm from Syracuse
My favorite as a kid🌟🌟🌟
For two years this guy was the best back in the league. The Redskins signed a guy Jaret Patterson who reminds me of Joe Morris.
An All Time Great NY Giant. Thank you Joe!
One of my all time favorite NFL Running Backs.

Little one's make history little Joe Morris
Hope the giants can be good like this again
