Oregon’s Key WR Injury Sparks Uncertainty Before Crucial Nebraska Showdown
His potential absence would create another problem for an offense already dealing with personnel issues. Starting quarterback Dante Moore remains out while recovering from a concussion, while starting receiver Jeremiah McClellan has missed three games because of a broken foot and is also listed as unavailable for the upcoming matchup.
McClellan’s absence has given freshman Messiah Hampton a starting role. Hampton has 17 receptions this season and ranks third on the team in catches. Freshman Jalen Lott and backup tight end Andrew Olesh could see additional opportunities if Stewart cannot play. Lott caught one pass for six yards versus the Bruins, Hampton finished with three catches for 14 yards in that game, and Olesh did not log a reception.
