How the Oregon Ducks performed in Week 12 of the NFL

How the Oregon Ducks performed in Week 12 of the NFL

In just a few days, the Oregon Ducks will play their most important game of the 2023 season: the Pac-12 Championship game against the Washington Huskies. That’s on Friday, but as always, Sundays are reserved for pro football, and there are plenty of former Ducks playing across the NFL.

Week 12 was the two-thirds mark of the NFL season, and through those twelve weeks, several Pro Ducks have carved out good roles for themselves on their respective teams. Hopefully, they can continue to perform in the final third of the 2023 NFL season.

Below, is a check-in with all of your favorite Pro Ducks.

While the college football regular season only has one week left, the NFL still has seven weeks before playoffs start. All that means? More opportunities for Pro Ducks to stand out.

The standout former Oregon Duck this week was — unsurprisingly – Justin Herbert. While his team lost, and he didn’t post the best completion percentage, he threw several passes that were dropped that could’ve changed the game. Pro Football Focus gave him the highest QB grade of the week at 92.7.

Another standout was Kayvon Thibodeaux, who now has 10.5 sacks on the season — tied for fifth in the NFL. Last year, Thibodeaux had only four sacks and has clearly broken out in year two.

How the Oregon Ducks performed in Week 10 of the NFL

How the Oregon Ducks performed in Week 10 of the NFL

After how late the Oregon vs. USC game went on Saturday Night, I was too tuckered out for football to be my priority on Sunday, and I have a feeling plenty of you felt the same. So, below is my weekly check-in with all of the Pro Ducks, although I did miss most of the games.

This was the NFL’s Week 10 which is hard to believe. A lot happened for the Oregon Ducks in the NFL this week. DJ Johnson and some other rookies are beginning to make consistent impacts for their new teams, Justin Herbert reached a historic milestone, and overall, all of the Pro Ducks seem to be getting better every week.

Jevon Holland’s Miami Dolphins and Royce Freeman’s LA Rams were on byes this week, so you won’t see them listed below.

How the Oregon Ducks performed in Week 9 of the NFL

Week 9 was a busy week for the Oregon Ducks in the NFL. Former Ducks’ safety, Jevon Holland, kicked things off early Sunday morning with the Dolphins’ matchup against the Chiefs in Germany. DeForest Buckner and the Colts’ defense handled Carolina. And, the week was capped off with Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers taking down the New York Jets on Monday Night Football.

The NFL is now halfway through its season and several Ducks’ have their teams in playoff contention. Holland and the Dolphins lead their division, Deommodore Lenoir, Arik Armstead, and the 49ers are 3rd in the NFC, and Justin Herbert’s Chargers are one game back from a Wild Card spot in the AFC.

Take a look below to see how the rest of the pro Ducks did this week.

How the Oregon Ducks performed in the NFL’s Week 8

Week 8 of the NFL was unusual, particularly because there wasn’t a single team on bye across the league. For us, this meant every pro Oregon Duck’s team took the field this week. Justin Herbert and Kayvon Thibodeaux had particularly strong games this week, which you’ll want to check out.

One player that you won’t see on the list this week is Dolphins’ star safety Jevon Holland. After spending the week in the concussion protocol, Holland was downgraded to out ahead of Miami’s game against New England. Although the Dolphins’ defense surely missed Holland, they were still able to crank out a win against the Patriots.

How the Oregon Ducks performed in the NFL’s Week 6

How the Oregon Ducks performed in the NFL’s Week 6

Week 6 of the NFL season was capped off last night with the San Diego Chargers’ tight loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Chargers QB Justin Herbert’s season struggles continued in this game. It seems like every week, he and the Chargers put themselves millimeters away from victory, but are often unable to reach it.

For most of the rest of the pro Ducks in the NFL, things weren’t much better. The San Francisco 49ers, which include former Oregon defenders, Deommodore Lenoir and Arik Armstead, lost to the Cleveland Browns, as did a lot of the other pro Ducks week.

Furthermore, Cowboys rookie OL, T.J. Bass did not play this week against the Chargers.

Below is an update on how each pro Duck performed in the NFL’s Week 6.

How former Ducks performed in Week 4 of the NFL

How former Ducks performed in Week 4 of the NFL

While Week 3 saw a plethora of former Oregon Ducks have personal success in the NFL, Week 4 wasn’t nearly as fruitful. Players like Juwan Johnson, Pharoah Brown, and Shane Lemieux, who either had their best or only game of the 2023 season last weekend, failed to impact the games they played in this weekend — if they played at all.

There were still plenty of players that were able to make an impact. T.J. Bass is one of the more interesting stories of the week because, despite a poor performance last weekend, he still got in for the Cowboys this Sunday and showed improvement.

Below are check-ins with the rest of the Oregon Ducks’ NFL representatives:

Pair of Pro Ducks get bitten by injury bug in Week 4 of NFL action

Both Justin Herbert and Christian Gonzalez suffered injuries in Week 4 of NFL action.

There are a lot of former Oregon Ducks playing in the NFL this year, but two have arguably been getting most of the attention from Duck fans so far this year, for understandable reasons.

Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert and New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez have been frequent topics of conversation over the past several months for Oregon fans. Unfortunately, this past weekend, both suffered injuries in their respective games.

In a over the Las Vegas Raiders, Herbert reportedly fractured a finger on his non-throwing hand and lacerated his fingernail. According to multiple reports, Herbert is not expected to miss any time going forward, with the Chargers enjoying a bye in Week 5.

The outlook for Gonzalez is not as optimistic. The Patriots CB suffered a shoulder injury against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Going forward, there is not a timetable for his return, though it is not expected to be in the near future.

How former Ducks performed in Week 3 of the NFL

Jevon Holland cemented himself as one of the best safeties in the NFL, while Justin Herbert did Justin Herbert things.

This week was an exciting one for pro Oregon Ducks. A large portion of the games that featured former Oregon football stars, resulted in a win for that former Duck’s team.

Jevon Holland in particular had an impressive performance this week as his team had one of the most decisive victories since the AFL was alive over the Broncos. Justin Herbert also brought his best stuff to the field on Sunday and had his best game of the young season.

Across the league, more Ducks are getting shots with their respective teams. It’s good to see this list getting longer each week.

Below is a report on each professional Oregon Duck’s Week 3 performance:

DeForest Buckner found the endzone, while Christian Gonzalez thrived in his debut. Here’s how Oregon stars performed in Week 1 of the NFL season

The NFL season is finally upon us, and littered across the league are former Oregon Ducks. Like I’ve done for the players across the NCAA who have transferred from Oregon, I will be providing a weekly update on the notable players who moved on from Oregon to the NFL.

There are 26 former Oregon Ducks on active NFL rosters. Not all of them are included in this list because not all of them played in or impacted their team’s first game. For this reason, the names on this list will likely fluctuate from week to week.
