​Oregon Ducks quarterback Dante Moore will miss the rest of the season, coach Dan Lanning announced Monday night.“I’m not anticipating him being back this season,” Lanning said.“Really got clarity for us this past week, for him,” Lanning added. “And I think if it were up to Dante in any shape, way, he would want to be out there playing for the guys. But, unfortunately, it’s not really up to Dante. It’s not really up to me. We can control the setting and practice where he’s able to do things for us, but that’s not always the case in the game.”Lanning said he expects Moore, who has run scout-team offense in practice, to fully recover.“That hasn’t changed,” Lanning said. “Definitely feel that way, but for him to be out there on the field for us right now, that’s not gonna happen.”Lanning added that Moore would remain involved with the team.“He’s still going to be a big part of this team and helping us move forward and find opportunities for us to be better,” Lanning said.Watch “Oregon Ducks QB Dante Moore to miss remainder of 2026 season” on YouTubeWatchThe announcement comes days after the reeling Ducks lost 21-10 at Illinois on Saturday in the third straight game Moore missed while in concussion protocol.Before the Illinois game, Moore told The Oregonian/OregonLive that he felt good but didn’t know if he’d return this season and was taking it “one day at a time.” “That’s all I can do,” he said.He then began throwing passes on the field in shorts and a sweatshirt. Saturday’s loss all but knocked Oregon (4-3, 2-2 Big Ten) out of the national playoff picture and led Lanning to fire offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer on Sunday. Without Moore, Oregon scored 42 points over three games and lost twice while rotating between backup quarterbacks Dylan Raiola and Brock Thomas.Moore was injured on Sept. 26 at USC while sliding to end a 10-yard run to the USC 13-yard line. As Moore began to slide, Trojans linebacker Desman Stephens II hit him in the head with his shoulder.Oregon quarterback Dante Moore, center bottom, takes a hard tackle by lSouthern California inebacker Desman Stephens II, center top, during the first half of an NCAA college football game, Saturday, Sept. 26, 2026, in Los Angeles.

Following Moore’s injury, Raiola entered the game and led the Ducks to a 41-27 win. Moore entered the concussion protocol but returned to practice the following bye week. Speculation was that Moore would return once he cleared the protocols. But each subsequent availability report listed Moore as out.On Oct. 10, Oregon lost 17-15 to UCLA, with Raiola struggling through three quarters before being replaced in the fourth quarter by Thomas. Thomas started the following week against Nebraska, but he played poorly before Raiola entered the game in the fourth quarter and led the Ducks to a 17-14
