Like with Carol, Morgan has had one of the most fascinating arcs on the entire show, even if he did completely disappear for large portions of it.

Like with Carol he's started fighting again, although with completely different reasoning. His current mental state is unclear, and he's going to be right in the thick of the action.

Unlike Carol, Morgan's time on the show is probably coming to a close. He's a beloved character, would be a major casualty, but he's also had a lot of story already, and there's narrative room for a fitting end to his arc this year. His saving grace is that Scott M. Gimple clearly loves the character, but it might be time for him to kill his darling.
