Injury Update: Oregon Ducks without several starters vs. Stanford Cardinal

Both starting safety Bennett Williams and starting center Alex Forsyth ware not with the team in pregame warmups ahead of Stanford game.

We didn’t have much word of new injuries for the Oregon Ducks coming into this game against the Stanford Cardinal, but pregame warmups were revealing, with a noted absence from C Alex Forsyth and S Bennett Williams.

In Forsyth’s stead, Ryan Walk was taking snaps with the first-team offense. At the safety position, it was LB Jefferey Bassa who was working with the secondary. Bassa was originally a safety for the Ducks that moved to the LB position to fill a need left by injuries.

On top of the player absence, it appears that offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead is absent from the game as well. There were rumors circulating online that he did not make the trip with the team, and that appears to be accurate at this time. We will update if new information arises.
