Club Career
Middlesbrough
Bryn Morris began his career at Middlesbrough, having joined the club when he was eleven and made progress through the academy. He made his first-team debut on 5 January 2013 in an FA Cup tie away to Hastings United, a match that Middlesbrough won 4–1. He made his league debut on 4 May in a 2–0 defeat away to Sheffield Wednesday. Two months after making his debut, Morris signed his first professional contract with the club, which would keep him until 2016.
On 21 November 2014, Morris signed for League Two club Burton Albion on a one-month loan. One day later, Morris made his debut, where he came on as a substitute for Adam McGurk, in a 1–0 victory over Luton Town. His impressive displays at Burton Albion prompted manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink to tip him for greatness. On 13 December 2014, Morris provided an assist for Shane Cansdell-Sherriff to score the third goal in a 4–0 win over Hartlepool United. Despite Burton being keen to extend the loan it never materialised, and Morris returned to Middlesbrough, having made five appearances for Burton Albion.
On 6 August 2015, Morris signed for Coventry City on a season-long loan, linking up again with Tony Mowbray, the manager under whom he had made his professional debut. He made six appearances, the last coming against Rochdale, for Coventry before being recalled by Middlesbrough on 26 October 2015.
On 27 October 2015, Morris signed for League Two club York City on a one-month loan. On 28 January 2016, Morris signed for League One club Walsall on a two-month loan.
