Speaking with The Argonaut, Morrison let it slip that he was returning in a major way on ABC's hit medical soap.

"I have a big role in Grey's Anatomy coming up," the 38-year-old actor and father-to-be told the outlet. ABC declined to comment.

Morrison made his debut on Grey's in the penultimate episode of season 13, where Alex (Justin Chambers) spent much of his time following Paul's every move at a Seattle medical conference. Though Alex had visions of beating up Jo's abusive hubby, their only interaction was a brief moment outside when Alex passed on sharing a cab with Paul, who gave him a curious look.
