On3 (Pete Nakos, Sept 27): he flew home to Eugene with the team.

What nobody knows yet

Who starts at quarterback against Northwestern on Oct 31. Dylan Raiola started at Illinois; Oregon has not named a Northwestern starter.

To my team, the community, and to the World, thank you. These past 2 days have been very difficult, but through all of your prayers I have made progress. There’s times I question myself and the Lord and say Why now? but I quickly remember Jeremiah 29:11: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future”. I can only worry about today, and making sure I give today it’s full attention. I’ll be back soon. Go Ducks! 🦆

Dante Moore is listed OUT for Oregon at Illinois on the Wednesday initial Big Ten availability report (Oct 21, 2026). He did not play in the 17-14 win over Nebraska on Oct 17; Brock Thomas started and Dylan Raiola finished (Oregon official box score, Oct 17, 2026).

On Wednesday, Oct 7: "Everybody has a smile on their face getting to see Dante out there with us this week and it's been fun seeing him compete" (GoDucks video). After the UCLA game on Oct 10, asked whether Moore returns this season, Lanning said: "It's a continued discussion. I don't want to put words in my mouth, or Dante's, on that," and "He's been practicing with his team. You know, I anticipate that there's going to be an opportunity for him to be back out there, but it'd be unfair for me to say that right now" (postgame press conference, GoDucks video, as quoted by Sports Illustrated, Lily Crane (Oct 11, 2026)). He did not play against UCLA (ESPN box score). Dan Lanning, in a statement posted by Oregon Football at 4:15 PM PT on Sept 27: "Dante sustained a concussion in last night's game but fortunately his MRI and CT scans came back clean and he did not suffer any additional injuries. Every concussion is different and we are going to move forward with an abundance of caution to ensure we make the best decisions for Dante and his future." The statement did not give a return date.

Earlier Sunday, CBS Sports (Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer), citing sources, reported that he is expected to return at some point after concussion protocol, with no timetable; Oregon's statement does not address a return, so that part is still a report. On3's Pete Nakos reported that Moore flew home to Eugene with the team. We are hoping for the best for Dante. Injured at USC on Sept 26 with 10:06 left in the second quarter, when USC linebacker Desman Stephens II hit him late at the end of a 10-yard run. Stephens was ejected for targeting.

Dierre Hill Jr. RB INJURED

Dierre Hill Jr. was hurt late in the first half against Northwestern on Oct 31 and missed the last minutes of it; Dan Lanning said at halftime that he should be back once he warmed up (as reported by Ducks Wire (Bjorn Bergstrom, Oct 31, 2026), including reporter Zachary Neel's sideline post). He had no carries, catches or returns after halftime in ESPN's play-by-play. After the game Lanning said Oregon's backups "had to show up with Jordon going down and Dierre being a little bit banged up" (Dan Lanning postgame press conference via Sports Illustrated (Lily Crane, Oct 31, 2026)), and Oregon's recap called Davison and Hill "injured starters" (Oregon Athletics recap and official box score with participation (Oct 31, 2026)). Oregon has not described the injury or a timeline, so none is claimed here. Status unchanged since November 1, 2026.

Jordon Davison RB INJURED

Jordon Davison was hurt in the first half against Northwestern on Oct 31 after being tackled awkwardly, came out of the locker room in street clothes and on crutches, and did not return; Dan Lanning told Peacock's sideline reporter at halftime that he would not be back (as reported by Ducks Wire (Bjorn Bergstrom, Oct 31, 2026), including reporter Zachary Neel's sideline post). His last snap was a 3-yard catch with 2:39 left in the first quarter, after 3 carries for 17 yards (ESPN play-by-play). After the game Lanning called it a "leg injury" and said: "Don't know completely exactly where that's at yet. … So we'll continue to evaluate, and I'm sure I'll be able to give you guys an update" (Dan Lanning postgame press conference via Sports Illustrated (Lily Crane, Oct 31, 2026)). Oregon's own recap called Davison and Hill "injured starters" (Oregon Athletics recap and official box score with participation (Oct 31, 2026)). Oregon has not said how long he will be out, so no timeline is claimed here. Earlier: Started at Illinois on Oct 24 and had 14 carries for 92 yards and a touchdown, plus two fourth-down conversions in the fourth quarter (Oregon Athletics official box score; ESPN play-by-play). The August scare did not hold up. Davison played in the Sept 5 opener against Boise State and scored on a 1-yard run early in the second quarter. At USC on Sept 26 he ran 16 times for 66 yards and a touchdown. Against UCLA on Oct 10 he stayed down after a 5-yard run on Oregon's first drive of the fourth quarter, then returned and carried twice more later in the quarter. He finished with 13 carries for 41 yards and a touchdown. Oregon has not described an injury, so none is claimed here.

Dave Iuli OL OUT · VS NORTHWESTERN

Dave Iuli was listed OUT on all four of Oregon’s Big Ten availability reports for Northwestern (Wednesday Oct 28, Thursday Oct 29, Friday Oct 30 and game day Oct 31, 2026). On Wednesday, Oct 28, Dan Lanning said Iuli needs surgery, after Matt Johnson: "Same for Dave." He added that Iuli "has been fighting through it, battling through it," was "dressed for the game" at Illinois, and "just wasn't able to perform, so he has surgery as well." No return date was given (Wednesday press availability, as quoted by Sports Illustrated, Lily Crane, Oct 28, 2026). Source: Big Ten availability reports for Oregon vs Northwestern, Wednesday Oct 28, Thursday Oct 29, Friday Oct 30 and game day Oct 31, 2026 (read on the conference's official availability portal). Earlier: Dave Iuli is not listed on Oregon’s initial Big Ten availability report for Illinois (Oct 21, 2026), which means available under conference policy for that report. This is a change from Oregon’s Nebraska gameday report, which listed him a GAME TIME DECISION. He was not among Oregon's five offensive line starters against Nebraska on Oct 17 (Oregon official box score, starters: Utu, Addison, Crader, Laloulu, Wilson); Oregon has not yet published whether he played. Oregon's Big Ten availability reports for Nebraska list him AVAILABLE on Wednesday, Oct 14, PROBABLE on Thursday, Oct 15, and Friday, Oct 16, and a GAME TIME DECISION on the gameday report, Saturday, Oct 17. Oregon has not described a new injury, so none is claimed here. Earlier: Torn triceps sustained in the College Football Playoff run, which cost him all of spring practice and limited him early in fall camp. On Aug 6, 2026 Lanning said Iuli brings real game experience but "he’s not going to be full go yet for us." He cleared that bar before the opener. At his Monday press conference on Aug 31, 2026, Lanning said Iuli "has been able to practice for us all week" and that he feels "comfortable that he could play." Offensive line coach A’lique Terry, asked about him during Week 1 preparation, said "Dave is cooking. He’s doing a really good job." He was available for the opener and played 15 snaps behind Michael Bennett III, and the preseason availability question closed: Iuli started four straight games at right guard through UCLA, then was not among Nebraska’s five starters (Oregon football game notes for Nebraska (GoDucks.com, Oct 13, 2026)), and played all 61 snaps at Oklahoma State.

He was not listed on Wednesday's report (Oct 28). The report does not give a reason, and Oregon has not described an injury, so none is claimed here. He did not play in the 34-26 win: he is not on Oregon's official participation list or starter list (Oregon Athletics official box score, Oct 31, 2026).

Lanning on Sept 30, asked about Hooks: "Yeah, he's healthy."

Messiah Hampton WR OUT · VS NORTHWESTERN

Messiah Hampton was listed OUT on Oregon’s Friday (Oct 30) and game-day (Oct 31, 2026) Big Ten availability reports for Northwestern. He was not listed on the Wednesday (Oct 28) or Thursday (Oct 29) report. The report does not give a reason. Off the field: Hampton was arrested on Friday, Oct 30, 2026, booked into the Lane County Jail and released that evening. Jail records list two felony counts of attempting to elude police and one misdemeanor count of reckless driving (The Oregonian and ESPN, Oct 31, 2026; CBS Sports reported one felony count). The charges stem from a two-vehicle police chase in Springfield at 3:51 a.m. on Oct 18, hours after the Nebraska game. Springfield Police Deputy Chief George Crolly: “Mr. Hampton has been identified as the driver of one of the vehicles. We are still working to identify the driver of the other vehicle.” These are charges, not a conviction. Oregon had not commented on the arrest as of Oct 31 (ESPN). On Oct 19, Dan Lanning described “an incident that didn't match our standard” and said any discipline would be handled internally (ESPN). Sources: Jail records as reported by The Oregonian and ESPN (Paolo Uggetti, Oct 31, 2026); Springfield Police Deputy Chief George Crolly, Oct 30, 2026, as quoted by CBS Sports (Robby Kalland, Oct 31, 2026).

Dillon Gresham WR OUT

Neck injury. Missed the entire 2025 season and has not been on the field to start fall camp. On Aug 6, 2026 Lanning gave an update that was notably grim: "There's not really a clear indication that Dillon's going to be able to help us here in the future. He'll be a part of our team, but from a medical standpoint, I don't know if that's clear that he'd be able to." He remains on the roster and with the program.

Tony Cumberland DL OUT

Passenger in a single-vehicle car accident on Apr 3, 2026. Defensive line coach Tony Tuioti said that Saturday: 'He was a passenger in a car accident. Obviously, we're thinking about him. He's recovering right now. He'll be out for the rest of spring.' At the time the staff hoped to have him back before the season. That changed on the record: asked about Cumberland at Big Ten Media Days in Chicago on July 29, 2026, Dan Lanning said 'I think it'll be really hard to see him out there on the field this year. I don't anticipate seeing him,' adding that Cumberland will 'continue to be around the team and be a part of the team as much as he can, even if it's not out there competing or doing a drill.' The latest public update did not move him closer to the field: on Aug 18, 2026, Tony Tuioti said Cumberland still has a ways to go and that it is not something Oregon expects to see soon. He was the No. 60 overall recruit and No. 5 defensive lineman in the 2026 class.

Washington left the Oklahoma State game on Sept 12 and returned later in it for limited snaps, finishing with 40 of Oregon's 87 defensive plays. He played 11 snaps against Portland State on Sept 18 in a game where no starter needed many. Oregon has not described the injury and has not listed him as limited.

Earlier: Played against UCLA on Oct 10 (Oregon's official participation list). Oregon's gameday availability report had listed him a GAME TIME DECISION; he was DOUBTFUL on the first report (Oct 7), then QUESTIONABLE on Oct 8 and Oct 9. Oregon has not described an injury, so none is claimed here.

He then played: 13 defensive snaps at Oklahoma State on Sept 12 and 1 against Portland State on Sept 18. Whatever kept him out in Week 1 is behind him. Oregon never confirmed an injury at any point.

Carl Williams IV DB AVAILABLE

Williams is not listed on Oregon's Friday, Sept 25 Big Ten availability report. The conference does not print an "available" label; its policy is that a player left off the report is considered available, which is why we show him that way. He had been listed PROBABLE on Wednesday. He was hurt in the fourth quarter at Oklahoma State on Sept 12, did not return, and did not play against Portland State on Sept 18. Asked what the injury was, Dan Lanning said he "got knicked during the game" and added "I won't speak on what it is", so Oregon has disclosed nothing further. Some outlets have described it as a head injury; that is a reporter's characterisation and not something the program has confirmed, so we are not stating it. He has no line in ESPN's USC box score, which does not show whether he played, so his participation at USC is unconfirmed.

RB coach Samples said in April that Riggs gained weight and strength while rehabbing and would 'insert himself in that competition' when healthy. He has.

Dakorien Moore was not listed on any of Oregon’s Big Ten availability reports for Northwestern (Oct 28-31, 2026), which means available under conference policy. He left the field late in the fourth quarter against Northwestern on Oct 31 after taking a hard hit, after catching 7 passes for 128 yards and two touchdowns (ESPN box score). After the game Lanning said: "It seems like Dakorien's gonna be good. I think that's not gonna be anything impactful for him," and added that Moore told him while he was still on the ground, "I'm ready for the next play" (Dan Lanning postgame press conference via Sports Illustrated (Lily Crane, Oct 31, 2026)). Oregon has not described an injury, so none is claimed here. Earlier: Moore left the Boise State opener late after taking a hard hit and returned to the game. Asked about his status after practice on Sept 9, 2026, he said: "Physical update, I'm perfectly fine and ready to go do what I have to do."

Dan Lanning said on Sept 14 that he expected to "be able to have back this week", and Utu played 29 snaps against Portland State on Sept 18.

Dylan Raiola QB AVAILABLE

Started at Illinois on Oct 24 and played every snap: 27 of 41 for 246 yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions, sacked twice, in the 21-10 loss (Oregon Athletics official box score). No injury. The broken fibula from Nov 1, 2025 (Nebraska vs USC) is behind him: he told media in spring practice he had been fully cleared. At USC on Sept 26 he played the rest of the game after Dante Moore was hurt with 10:06 left in the first half, and went 19 of 25 for 289 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. Lanning on Sept 28: "Dylan was absolutely ready for his opportunity."

Evan Stewart was not listed on any of Oregon’s four Big Ten availability reports for Northwestern (Wednesday Oct 28, Thursday Oct 29, Friday Oct 30 and game day Oct 31, 2026), which meant available under conference policy, and he played: 4 catches for 71 yards in the 34-26 win (ESPN box score, Oct 31, 2026). Off the field: Stewart was arrested on suspicion of DUII early on Sunday, Oct 18, 2026, and booked into the Springfield jail (KATU, Oct 23, 2026). As of Oct 23, municipal court records showed no complaint filed; KATU corrected an earlier report that prosecutors had declined to charge him, and prosecutors have up to a year to file. Springfield Police Deputy Chief George Crolly: “The prosecutor has not dismissed charges. The prosecutor has not filed charges as they are awaiting evidence” (The Oregonian, Ryan Clarke, Oct 23, 2026). Police have said he is not a suspect in the Oct 18 police chase that led to Messiah Hampton’s arrest (ESPN, Oct 31, 2026). Lanning said the program would take the appropriate action (KATU). Stewart missed Illinois on Oct 24; Oregon has not said whether that was discipline.

He leads Oregon with 27 catches for 352 yards and four touchdowns through five games (Oregon football game notes for Nebraska, GoDucks.com, Oct 13, 2026). Earlier: Torn patellar tendon (June 2025), which cost him all of 2025. He returned to full spring practice and played the whole way in the Sept 5 opener against Boise State, leading Oregon with eight catches for 72 yards on 58 snaps. He also muffed a punt that Boise State recovered and scored on, and Lanning backed him publicly afterwards: 'I have all the belief in the world in Evan and the trust.'

Gernorris Wilson OL FULL PARTICIPANT

Broken foot (Nov 8, 2025, at Iowa). Made his first career start at right tackle filling in for an injured Alex Harkey, broke the foot in the first half, and finished the game anyway. Oregon won 18-16. He missed the final six games of 2025 and all of spring practice. Back for fall camp, and back on the field since: 1 snap at Oklahoma State on Sept 12 and 45 against Portland State on Sept 18. He did not win a starting tackle spot: Fox Crader started at right tackle in the opener and played all 64 snaps, while Wilson played 5. Wilson on the injury: "I knew something was wrong, but I didn't know how bad it was. I thought it was something I'd be able to walk off." On losing spring: "It was really, really hard." On the camp competition: "Let the best five win." He had 212 career snaps, 168 of them at right tackle, going into 2026.

Not on Oregon’s official participation list at Illinois on Oct 24, and not on any of the four Big Ten availability reports for that game, so the conference considered him available; Oregon has not described an injury, and none is claimed here (Oregon Athletics official box score; Big Ten availability reports, Oct 21-24, 2026). He played against UCLA on Oct 10 and had 1 catch for 2 yards (ESPN box score, Oct 10, 2026). Played at USC on Sept 26 after being listed a GAME TIME DECISION on Oregon's gameday availability report: he is on the official participation list (USC Athletics box score). He did not record a catch. Oregon has not said whether he remained limited, and he is not listed on Oregon's first availability report for UCLA (Oct 7), so the conference considers him available. Before that: Oregon's Wednesday and Friday reports listed him QUESTIONABLE; he had been hurt late in the Sept 18 Portland State game, his best of the season (4 catches, 53 yards, his first career touchdown).

Nasir Wyatt EDGE AVAILABLE

Wyatt is not listed on Oregon's Friday, Sept 25 Big Ten availability report. The conference does not print an "available" label; under its policy a player left off the report is considered available, which is why we show him that way. Earlier: Sophomore edge rusher. Warmed up in pads wearing a padded club on his right hand and played 7 snaps against Boise State, generating two pressures in them. Oregon has never declared him out and Lanning has not named an injury, so the club and the snap count are beat-reporter observation, not a team designation.

Prince Tavizon OLB FULL PARTICIPANT

Tavizon did not dress for the Boise State opener on Sept 5, 2026 and Oregon gave no reason. He has since appeared, playing 1 defensive snap against Portland State on Sept 18. No injury was ever confirmed by the program.

Simeon Price RB AVAILABLE

Simeon Price is not listed on Oregon’s initial Big Ten availability report for Illinois (Oct 21, 2026), which means available under conference policy for that report. This is a change from Oregon’s Nebraska gameday report, which listed him OUT. Oregon's Big Ten availability reports for Nebraska, filed Wednesday, Oct 14, Thursday, Oct 15, Friday, Oct 16, and gameday, Saturday, Oct 17, all list him OUT. Earlier: Oregon's first Big Ten availability report for UCLA, filed Wednesday, Oct 7, lists him OUT. Earlier: Oregon's gameday availability report for USC lists him OUT. Oregon's first Big Ten availability report of the season, filed Wednesday, Sept 23, lists Price OUT for USC, still without a stated reason. He was not in uniform for the Boise State opener on Sept 5, 2026, and Chris Hansen of The Register-Guard listed him among the players out for Oklahoma State in his Sept 9, 2026 availability rundown, again without a stated cause. No injury has been confirmed by the program, so none is claimed here. Friday's report, filed Sept 25, still lists him OUT. Sources: Big Ten availability report, initial report for UCLA, Wednesday Oct 7, 2026 (read on the conference's official availability portal); Big Ten gameday availability report, Sept 26, 2026 (read on the conference's official availability portal); Big Ten availability report, Friday Sept 25, 2026 (read on the conference's official availability portal); Oregon availability report (Sept 23, 2026) as published by The Register-Guard, Ducks Wire and Sports Illustrated; Chris Hansen, The Register-Guard (Sept 9, 2026).

Trey McNutt DB FULL PARTICIPANT

Broke his right leg in fall camp in August 2025, redshirted to rehab it, and returned during the College Football Playoff run without being all the way right. Defensive coordinator Chris Hampton said early in 2026 fall camp that McNutt is back healthy and doing everything. McNutt spoke for himself on Friday, Aug 14, 2026, after Oregon's ninth fall camp practice: 'Right after I broke my leg, right after I broke it, I was down. But right away, I snapped back.' Describing the play itself, he said: 'I was making a play in the back of the endzone. I dove for the ball and ran into another teammate and it broke.' He said the year away went into the mental side and learning the defense. He was a five-star recruit in the 2025 class and is in the safety rotation with Aaron Flowers and Minnesota transfer Koi Perich.

Where these designations come from

For Big Ten games, Oregon files an official availability report with the conference, and those labels are the conference's own: Probable, Questionable, Doubtful and Out midweek, then Game Time Decision, Out and Out (1st Half) on gameday. A player left off the report is considered available under Big Ten policy, and that is all our Available label means. Everything else here is ours, drawn from press conferences and credible reporting, and every entry carries the exact quote, who said it and the date.

Availability labels used: Out for season, Out, Out (1st Half), Doubtful, Game Time Decision, Questionable, Injured, Unconfirmed, Limited, Day-to-Day, Probable, Available, Full Participant. Unconfirmed means credible reports contradict each other and Oregon has not resolved it.

In plain terms: Availability language is where certainty goes to disappear. A coach expecting someone back is not the same as a player being cleared, and this page will not turn one into the other.

This is a conference game, so the Big Ten availability report applies: Oregon files Wednesday, Thursday and Friday by 8pm ET and again two hours before kickoff, published on the conference's availability portal. Source: ESPN, Aug 28, 2026.

In Big Ten play, Oregon files an official availability report with the conference four times a game week: Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings, then two hours before kickoff. Outside conference play there is no formal report, so injury news comes from Dan Lanning's press conferences, GoDucks.com and credible media reports. This page tracks both, with the source and date on every entry.
