Florida fans who watched the NFL Combine probably wondered why linebacker Antonio Morrison wasn't there. Apparently, he was dealing with a pretty bad infection and needed tons of medicine and treatment over the last six weeks. NFL.com's Ian Rapoport is reporting that Morrison is all good to go now though.

Morrison led the team last season in tackles with 103 and had 12 tackles for loss to go with 2.5 sacks. He also had a forced fumble, a pass break up and three QB hurries. Morrison is projected as a potential seventh rounder or he may even go undrafted.
