ATH Anthony Jones
Anthony Jones has been on campus in Eugene since the start of the calendar year, and he is doing well to acclimate himself with the college lifestyle at Oregon. As a recruiting flip from the Texas Longhorns, there is a hope that Jones can have an impact early on with the Ducks, though we don’t quite know where that will be on the field. His size allows him to play both some defensive end and tight end, so it will be interesting to see where the Oregon staff chooses to line him up.
LBs Devon Jackson and Harrison Taggart
We know for sure that Harrison Taggart will be joining the Ducks midway through the spring session, where he is slated to come to Eugene near the end of March. He and Devon Jackson, who is Oregon’s highest-rated recruit in the 2022 class, may have a tough time cracking what looks to be a deep and talented linebacker depth chart, but if we learned anything from last year, it’s that depth is going to be key there. Due to the number of injuries that Oregon’s defense saw in 2021, the LB spot saw some real attrition, and while we hope that isn’t the case going forward, seeing these two step up and acclimate well in spring ball will certainly calm some nerves in Eugene.
