Practice Highlights (from Oregon's official practice report):
- Monday marked the first team practice after Colt Lyerla's departure.
- De'Anthony Thomas left practice without a boot.
- After being held without a first down in the clutch drill, the Marcus Mariota found Bralon Addison through the air for a touchdown in the tempo drill.
Quote of the day:
Obviously, he is a tremendous athlete that will be missed, but guys like Johnny, Pharaoh, Koa, and Evan all work as hard in practice as anyone. Those guys will have opportunities and I look forward to seeing what they can do.
- Marcus Mariota on replacing Colt Lyerla.
