Niall Morgan (born 17 July 1991) is an Irish Gaelic footballer who plays for the Edendork St Malachy's club and the Tyrone county team.
A knee injury later that year[when?] ruled him out for the rest of the season.[2][3] This was considered a severe blow to Tyrone's hopes of winning the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship.[4]
He has also played association football for Dungannon Swifts,[5] and represented Northern Ireland Under-18 schoolboys.[citation needed]
