Redskins tender RB Chris Thompson; Alfred Morris sends fans a farewell message
The Washington Redskins are moving on from Alfred Morris, and the veteran running back said his goodbyes today on Instagram.
Here’s what he posted in full:
“Man the last 4 years have flown by. I’ve met a lot of great people, made a lot of great memories, and was given countless opportunities to live my dream and better myself and my family. With the unknown getting closer I just wanted to take a second and thank the entire @Redskins organization for an amazing four years. From Mr. Dan Snyder to Mrs. B.J Blanchard who works the front desk and always greets everyone with a smile. No matter what happens I will always be apart of #RedskinsNation and a special thanks to all the fans and their abundance of love, support, and loyalty y’all make this game what is #HTTR”
While Morris is gone, the team did tender running back Chris Thompson to ensure they have a back up to Matt Jones the former Florida running back.
