On the heels of Oregon’s blowout loss to Indiana in the College Football Playoff semifinal, Ducks quarterback Dante Moore made a rare, but far from unheard of decision for a top NFL draft prospect. Rather than make the jump to the pros, and compete with Hoosiers quarterback Fernando Mendoza to be the potential No. 1 pick in the draft, Moore will remain at Oregon.
Moore just finished his third college season, but he remains pretty green, especially for an NFL prospect. Moore started five games as a true freshman at UCLA, and then sat behind Dillon Gabriel after transferring to the Ducks for the 2024 season. With 15 more starts under his belt in ‘25, he still has just 20 starts in his college career. He also won’t turn 21 until May.
