Morris had two loan spells with Chesterfield during the 2009–10 season. In July 2010, he signed a year-long loan deal to return to the Spireites for the 2010–11 campaign. [1] Morris played 21 games in the 2010–11 season which saw Chesterfield win the Football League Two title.

On 23 July 2015, Morris returned home to Dublin and signed for League of Ireland club St Patrick's Athletic. [4] He made his debut the next day, in a 3–0 win away to Sligo Rovers. Morris scored the winning penalty in a 4–2 penalty shoot-out win against Dublin rivals Shamrock Rovers, to put Pats' into the 2015 League of Ireland Cup Final. [5] On 5 March 2016, it was announced Morris had joined NIFL Premiership side Glenavon
