Redskins WR Morgan has leg surgery

Washington Redskins wide receiver Josh Morgan underwent surgery on his right leg Friday, and sent out a picture through Instagram of himself in a hospital bed with a cast on the leg.

Morgan, who had 48 receptions for 510 yards and two touchdowns during the regular season, his first with the Redskins after signing a two-year, $11.5 million deal.

It wasn't immediately known what the surgery was for, although the fifth-year veteran missed 11 games in 2011 after breaking his right leg and tearing ligaments. He played much of the 2012 season at less than 100 percent.

Morgan tweeted: "Surgery was a Success... Painful but worth it... Thank you god ... Time to heal and get back doing me like I really do #HTTR."
