In his college career, he was chosen for All-American team consecutively in 1967 and 1968. He set several collegiate records, and was among the nation’s best running backs, right behind O. J. Simpson. His professional sports career began when he was drafted as the 11th pick in the 3rd round (63rd overall) by the Miami Dolphins in 1969 NFL Draft. This engagement provided the basis for Mercury Morris’ wealth.
During his rookie season, he earned his nickname “Mercury” because of his outstanding reflexes and general speed, proving himself as a running back as well as a kick returner. Although the majority of his second season he spent on the bench due to a leg injury, in 1971 he considerably helped the Dolphins to reach their first Super Bowl, but in which they were wiped out by Dallas Cowboys.

In 1976, he was traded to Sand Diego Chargers where he finished his professional sports career later that year. Although relatively short, his eight-year long career supplied Mercury Morris with a significant amount of money.
Apart from on the football pitch, Morris has appeared in several motion pictures – in 1974 Matt Climber’s blaxploitation movie “The Black Six” he appeared as one of the title characters alongside several other NFL stars. He also featured in the 1983 documentary about drugs – “Cocaine Blues”.
However, in 1982 Mercury Morris was charged with cocaine trafficking, and sentenced to 22 years in prison. In 1986 after offering new evidence of his innocence and a new trial, Morris managed to reach a plea bargain, and was released in May 1986, after three and a half years. After this “venture” Morris became a motivational speaker, and in 1988 he released his book “Against the Grain” in which he “speaks” of his life, sports, cocaine and his prison time. Between 2006 and 2008, Morris appeared in four episodes of “Rome is Burning” sports talk-show.
