"Mr. Morgan is a fighter," his lawyer told NJ.com. "He's fighting to get better. And if there's a chance for him to be back to the Tracy Morgan he once was, he's going to try to do that."

"... We just don't know because of the severity of the injuries that he sustained and the fact that he had such a severe brain injury."

Morgan is currently in the midst of a lawsuit with Walmart after a truck driver working for the company rear-ended the comedian's limo, injuring the passengers and killing Morgan's friend James McNair.
