Career
Morgan broke through as a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1996 to 2003, then played Tracy Jordan — a deliberately heightened version of himself — on Tina Fey's 30 Rock from 2006 to 2013, earning a Primetime Emmy nomination in 2009. He later starred as Tray Barker in The Last O.G. (2018–2021) and returned to NBC with The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, in which he plays an ex-football player rebuilding his career with a documentary crew in tow. With Reggie Dinkins returns tonight, Morgan's comeback run continues.
