The Oregon Ducks continue to bolster their roster for the 2026 season, in which the Ducks program will have, arguably, the highest expectations of any Ducks team ever. With quarterback Dante Moore returning to the fold in Eugene for what will likely be his last collegiate season, the Ducks' offense will look to be explosive once again.

Why it matters

The Ducks are expected to have one of their most talented offenses in program history, led by star quarterback Dante Moore. How the depth chart shakes out at key positions like running back, offensive line, and wide receiver will be crucial to the team's success in 2026.

The details

Quarterback Dante Moore will return as the starting QB, with transfer Dylan Raiola likely sitting a year to learn the offense. At running back, Jordon Davison and Dierre Hill Jr. will see the bulk of the carries, with freshman Tradarian Ball as a change-of-pace option. On the offensive line, five-star tackle Immanuel Iheanacho and returning starter Fox Crader will anchor the tackles, while Dave Luli returns at right guard. The left guard spot is up for grabs between Douglas Utu and Kawika Rodgers. Center Iapani Laloulu will return to lead the line. At tight end, Jamari Johnson and Andrew Olesh will replace the departed Kenyon Sadiq. The receiving corps will be led by Dakorien Moore and Evan Stewart, with five-star freshman Jalen Lott expected to make an impact.

  • The Ducks will begin spring practice in March 2026.
  • The 2026 season opener is scheduled for September 5, 2026.
