Oregon Ducks position battles to watch: Who replaces Darren Carrington's big plays at receiver?

Related Topics: Darren Carrington

Darren Carrington’s indefinite suspension after his July 1 arrest on a charge of DUII, throws the status of Oregon’s pass-catchers into flux without his 43 catches and team-high 606 yards from a season ago. It was already going to be an inexperienced group. Now, it will be an extremely inexperienced one. Of Oregon’s top six pass catchers last season by yardage, only one, Charles Nelson, is currently with the team. Many observers on and around the team are watching to see how new coach Willie Taggart will handle Carrington’s punishment, seeing it could be a tone-setting decision.
