Oregon quarterback Dante Moore has decided to return to school for the 2026 season, he told ESPN's SportsCenter, forgoing a chance to be a top pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. He’ll project near the top of a loaded quarterback class for 2027. His return makes Oregon one of the preseason favorites in 2026. Moore gave up a chance to make nearly $50 million in guaranteed money, as last year’s No. 2 pick, Travis Hunter, made $46.65 fully guaranteed.
