How will Oregon's utilization of its tight ends change in 2023?

When Kenny Dillingham was at the helm of Oregon's offense last season, the Ducks leaned heavily on their deep, talented tight end room. Terrance Ferguson (444 snaps), Cam McCormick (365), Moliki Matavao (335), and Patrick Herbert (219) all carved out significant roles in an offense that implemented plenty of 12-personnel. Ferguson emerged as a legitimate threat in the passing game and hauled in five touchdown passes, while Herbert thrived as a lead-blocker in Oregon's jumbo short-yardage package. Both are back this season and are leading a tight end room that also features Ole Miss transfer Casey Kelly and 4-star signee Kenyon Sadiq. Will Stein, who transformed UTSA's offense into the 14th-highest scoring unit in the nation last season, has replaced Dillingham at Oregon. This spring, he said the 2022 version of the Ducks is "very similar" to the style of offense he is accustomed to. Simply put, he wants to get his best players the ball as many times as possible. So, what does that mean for Oregon's tight end utilization?
