QUOTABLE: Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning on injury updates for receiver Tez Johnson and offensive lineman Marcus Harper II:
“As soon as they’re ready to go, we’ll have them out there,” Lanning said. “We’re going to put player safety first. Tez will be down certainly right now in the near future, but I do anticipate us getting Tez back here soon. Same with Marcus [Harper II] I think. Neither one of those injuries are as bad as they appeared on the field and I think we’ll have those guys back but I don’t know when that looks like right now but we’ll do what we always do: take care of the players and what’s in the best interest of them. And both those guys [are] fighting to get back as soon as we can have them.”
