Tanner Morgan was named to the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award Watch List today.

Morgan, who was named All-Big Ten Second Team last season, set school single-season records for passing yards (3,253), touchdown passes (30), completion percentage (66.0%), passing yards per game (250.2), touchdown-interception ratio (4.28) and pass efficiency rating (178.7) in 2019.
Morgan and the Gophers open the season at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday at home against Michigan.
