With the 2017 Regular Season coming to a close this week for Oregon Football, three players have added a 14th game to their schedule this season.

The Oregon Football team is bowl eligible at 6-5 and will face Oregon State to close out the regular season on Saturday. The Reese’s Senior Bowl has been busy sending out invitations over the last month and Running Back Royce Freeman, Long Snapper Tanner Carew and Offensive Tackle Tyrell Crosby have accepted and will play in the 2018 Reese’s Senior Bowl.

The game is traditionally an opportunity for players to add to their careers and play an additional game with different competition before the NFL Draft. This season, Royce Freeman is one player who should do well in the Senior Bowl. He has already overtaken LaMichael James as the Top Running Back in Oregon Football History.

Freeman has not been completely healthy this season, but with the better part of a month to prepare between the Ducks’ Bowl Game and the Senior Bowl should be able to show off his versatility against some of the best in College Football this year.

Offensive Tackle Tyrell Crosby has been a big key to the Ducks Offensive Line this season and the protection for the Quarterback. As a Veteran on the team and playing up front under two different coaching staffs in his career, he will take the tools he has learned from Mario Cristobal and hopes to improve his NFL Draft Stock.
