The rumors suggest that Moore is suffering from a knee injury, which he picked up during practice this week. The seriousness of the injury remains unclear, with some reports saying he may miss games beyond today’s encounter against the Hawkeyes.
The true freshman, Dakorien Moore, is the Ducks’ leading receiver this season, with 443 receiving yards, 28 catches, and three touchdown receptions. Moore is a former five-star recruit who was considered the top wide receiver prospect in the class of 2025. He is a native of Duncanville, Texas, and was the fifth-best prospect in the state and the ninth-best overall prospect in the nation.
Dakorien Moore’s Injury
According to a report from ESPN’s Pete Thamel, Oregon’s leading receiver this season suffered an injury during practice this week, and his status for Saturday’s game against Iowa is uncertain.
The specifics of the injury are unknown, although reports suggest a knee injury. The extent of the injury also remains a mystery, with some reports suggesting he could play against the Hawkeyes, albeit in a limited capacity, while others imply that he could miss more than one game.
When does Oregon play Iowa?
The Oregon Ducks will face the Iowa Hawkeyes this Saturday at 3:30 pm ET. The game will be played at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa, and it will air on CBS. The Ducks are favorites to win the encounter by 5.5 points, according to ESPN Bet, although if the Hawkeyes pull off an upset, they will climb into the Top 25.
Iowa is the team with the most points in the AP Poll not to feature in the Top 25. The ESPN game predictor is giving Oregon a 70.3% chance of winning the game.
