Nix Staying in Duck Uniform
Oregon Duck quarterback Bo Nix says he is not quite ready to give up his spot on the Duck Roster. There was some indication that the Heisman candidate may move to the NFL Draft but he eased those concerns on Sunday when he told reporters that he would be back for the 2023 season. Nix said there is no feeling like the one he gets when he steps on the field at Autzen stadium. Nix passed for 3,388 yards this season with 27 touchdowns and only six interceptions. His 71.5 pass completion percentage led the Pac-12. He also had 14 rushing touchdowns which was one behind the single season record held by Marcus Mariota.
