Running back Alfred Morris has parlayed his worst season into a two-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys.

According to multiple reports, Morris’ agent, Sean Stellato, has confirmed that the 27-year-old Florida Atlantic product and the Cowboys had struck a deal.

Financial terms were not immediately available.

The fifth all-time leading rusher in Washington history finished 2015 with the lowest production of his four-year career with 806 yards overall and one touchdown. He averaged career lows in yards per carry (3.7) and yards after contact (1.45).

Morris joins a team whom he had quite a bit of success against. In eight career games against the Cowboys, Morris rushed for 710 yards and seven touchdowns on 152 carries, averaging 4.67 yards per attempt.

No running back has carried the ball more times in the past four years than the 1,078 times Morris has recorded.
