The No. 25 Oregon Ducks will be missing a starting offensive lineman Saturday during one of their more pivotal games of the season.

Starting offensive lineman Steven Jones was not in uniform for the Ducks during pregame warmups on Saturday, and was seen on the sideline with a boot on his left foot. Jones started at right guard for Oregon during each of its first two games this season but was not seen during the open portions of practice this week.

With Jones out, it’s likely that senior Ryan Walk re-enters the starting lineup for Oregon. Walk was out with a minor knee injury last week, but went through warmups on Saturday and appears to be full-go. At the other guard apart, Marcus Harper II is expected to start for the second week in a row, with Jackson Powers-Johnson getting plenty of snaps as well.
