Evan Stewart missed Saturday Night's thrilling comeback win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers with an injury.
This season, Evan Stewart returned to Oregon after missing all of last season recovering from a torn patellar tendon suffered in the 2025 offseason. Stewart is currently leading the Ducks in receiving with 27 catches for 352 yards and 4 touchdowns, averaging 13.0 yards per reception.
Following Saturday Night's win, Dan Lanning mentioned Stewart among the pieces Oregon is missing amid offensive struggles for the Ducks.
"We have talent enough players for us to be better than we've been. You know, that being said, it does look like a different group than what we started the season with. You know, you thought you were going to have Jeremiah McClellan, Evan Stewart, Dante Moore. There are some different pieces to the puzzle out there, and we're working really, really hard to shuffle it and figure it out."Dan Lanning
Oregon is slated to face Illinois this week in Champaign, IL on Saturday, October 24th
