EUGENE — Oregon was going to be calling on some of its young receivers to be significant contributors this season, but the injury to Evan Stewart and suspension of Jurrion Dickey has presented even greater opportunities for the rest of the wide outs.
Jeremiah McClellan and Dillon Gresham were both top 200 prospects a year ago and could find themselves in meaningful roles after redshirting last season.
“I see two young players who are getting a lot better,” receivers coach Ross Douglas said. “I think Dillon Gresham is one of our strongest receivers. J-Mac, he’s improved his play style. He’s playing more aggressive, more physical and really more confident. But I think confidence has been key for both of those guys. ... They just got to continue on that trajectory.”
