Morgan was the most notable absence of the 18 players named to the squad of first-year coach Emma Hayes, who is seeking to return the Americans to their long-accustomed elite levels.
The USWNT crashed out of last year's World Cup in the round of 16 and managed only a bronze at the Tokyo Olympics.
Morgan started in all four of America's matches of the 2023 World Cup but did not score and recorded one assist.
If this is the end of Morgan's international career, she'd leave with two World Cup titles on her resume and Olympic gold and bronze medals on her mantle.
"Today, I’m disappointed about not having the opportunity to represent our country on the Olympic stage," Morgan said in statement posted on X. "This will always be a tournament that is close to my heart and I take immense pride any time I put on the crest. "
