Oregon Gets Good News on QB Dante Moore After Scary Concussion
Oregon received encouraging news on Dante Moore after the QB returned to practice following a scary concussion against USC.
Oregon quarterback Dante Moore returned to practice on Monday after suffering a concussion during a game against USC in Week 4. The incident occurred in the first half when Moore was hit by USC linebacker Desman Stephens II, causing his head to collide violently with the turf. Moore was taken off the field on an ambulance and rushed to a Los Angeles hospital, but he did not suffer any other serious injuries.
Despite returning to practice, Coach Dan Lanning did not comment on whether Moore would play in the upcoming game against UCLA. Lanning emphasized that the team's priority was Dante's well-being, stating that they would release an injury report later in the week. If Moore does not participate in the upcoming match, Nebraska transfer Dylan Raiola would likely take his place.
Raiola impressed during Moore's absence, completing 19 of 25 passes for 289 yards and two touchdowns. Lanning expressed confidence in Raiola's ability to maintain the team's performance, urging him to continue his consistent play.
