A couple of games that immediately jump off the screen are Raiders versus Chargers and Broncos versus Seahawks games. 

Current Chargers and former Oregon quarterback will be making his first start under new coach Jim Harbaugh. Linebacker Troy Dye will be in his first game as a Charger after being a Minnesota Viking for the first four seasons of his career.

On the flip side for the Raiders, second-round Oregon rookie, Jackson Powers-Johnson will make his NFL debut. 

The other late afternoon game that will have fans glued to their TV is the Broncos and Seahawks game. Including Bo Nix, the Broncos have the most Oregon Ducks on their active 53-man roster.

To go along with Nix on the Broncos are former Ducks Alex Forsyth and Troy Franklin. The Seattle Seahawks have former Duck tight end, Pharaoh Brown.

It’s going to be an action-packed weekend of football. Buckle up.
