Evan Stewart Headlines Oregon Injury Report as Nebraska Game Looms

The Oregon Ducks enter their highly anticipated Big Ten showdown with Nebraska on Saturday night facing a critical offensive challenge after a pair of losses to ranked teams derailed their College Football Playoff hopes. With starting quarterback Dante Moore sidelined for the second straight game due to a concussion, Oregon’s already depleted roster takes another hit as star wide receiver Evan Stewart was listed as doubtful for the contest.

Stewart’s injury, which remains undisclosed, adds to the Ducks’ mounting concerns, particularly after sophomore wide receiver Jeremiah McClellan suffered a broken foot earlier this month and remains out for the season. The absence of two key playmakers forces Oregon to rely on Messiah Hampton and Dakorien Moore, while tight end Jamari Johnson may see increased involvement after a limited role in the team’s recent loss to UCLA.

Oregon, currently outside the AP Top 25 for the first time since 2022, must overcome these setbacks to avoid falling further behind in the playoff race, especially with only one win in Big Ten play so far.
