Oregon Ducks Defeat Michigan, Tez Johnson Injured

Oregon Ducks fans celebrated a 38-17 victory over the Michigan Wolverines but were left concerned about star wide receiver Tez Johnson, who suffered a shoulder injury early in the game. Initially feared to be serious, reports indicate that Johnson could return as early as the Big Ten Championship Game on December 7, depending on his recovery. Despite the injury, Oregon's head coach Dan Lanning expressed confidence in the team's depth, noting that they have capable replacements ready to step up. Johnson has been a standout this season, leading the team with 64 receptions for 649 yards and 8 touchdowns. Lanning confirmed that he is still assessing Johnson's injury status and mentioned another player, Marcus Harper II, also left the game but is expected to recover. The Ducks are optimistic about their chances in the postseason, even if Johnson's recovery timeline extends.
