Johnnie James Morton (born October 7, 1971 in Torrance, California) is a wide receiver in the NFL. He is currently a free agent after being recently waived by the San Francisco 49ers. He was drafted by the Detroit Lions in the 1st round (21st overall) in the 1994 NFL Draft. He played there until 2002, when he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs. He played there for three years. He then signed with the 49ers.
[edit] College career
He played at the University of Southern California. Morton managed to break USC and Pac-10 records for receptions and yards. He was essential for USC in the mid 90's and parlayed his college career into an NFL career of moderate success, mainly due to his lack of NFL speed.

Johnnie's younger brother, Chad Morton, also played at USC.
The Mortons are of mixed ethnicity, African-American and Korean.
