Oregon’s ProDucks Tight End Army Marches into Camp
Five Oregon Ducks tight ends—Kenyon Sadiq (Jets), Terrance Ferguson (Rams), Juwan Johnson (Saints), Johnny Mundt (Eagles), and Patrick Herbert (Jaguars)—are prepping for NFL training camps. Sadiq is rehabbing a hernia but should be ready for camp, while Ferguson enters Year 2 looking to stretch the Rams’ offense after a solid rookie showing. Johnson, now in his seventh NFL season, aims to build on a career-high 889 receiving yards. Mundt continues to excel as a blocker in Philadelphia, and Herbert, an undrafted free agent, battles for a roster spot in Jacksonville after a promising practice squad stint.
You know it’s official when your college tight ends outnumber the local mall Santas. Oregon has singlehandedly turned the TE position into the Ducks’ official export product. Forget silicon valleys and tech startups—Dan Lanning’s whistling call is “All aboard the tight end express!” Will these ducks fly? Or will they end up quacking on the sideline with hernia clamps and playbooks? Either way, it’s must-see TV: who doesn’t love watching grown men in practice jerseys tumble over each other in hopes of a rookie contract?

Dan Lanning’s staff is out in force, lassoing four- and five-star desperados before they skedaddle to another pasture. It’s the college football Hunger Games, only they’re armed with clipboards, green visors, and hopes that the next big class doesn’t ghost them like a bad Tinder date. Will the Ducks snag another superstar? Tune in this weekend to see if they can recruit more than just an overpriced buffet.
