Fourteen former Oregon Football players participated in the Ducks Pro Dy on Thursday with some making more noise than others.
Pharaoh Brown finished the season injuried missing the last few games, but his Pro Day Performance got him noticed by NFL Scouts. Coming off a devastating leg injury and returning to the field are just part of his story. The next chapter may find the Ducks Senior Tight End making an NFL Team on Draft Day next month.
Brown topped Tight Ends at the NFL Combine with 24 Bench Presses of the max weight of 225 pounds. He helped present a check to CASA of Lane County for his effort. Wednesday he took to the field inside the Moshofsky Center. Brown posted a 4.78 40-yard Dash, but after said he wasn’t concerned with the 40 yard-dash since he will probably never run one again.
Pharaoh Brown saw quite a bit of attention from NFL Scouts that were on hand, and even received some instruction from one.

Quarterback Dakota Prukop was also participating in the Pro Day looking to boost his stock after having a rough second half of the season as the Oregon Ducks Backup behind Freshman Justin Herbert. He showed off his arm completing 20 of 25 passes Oregon also had some Defensive Participants.
Johnny Ragin III returned to the field and performed well along with Reggie Daniels. Several former Oregon Ducks were also looking to get some attention including Christian French and Tyson Coleman.
