Oregon's Justin Flowe will miss Ducks' Week 5 showdown with Stanford
Oregon will be missing some defensive firepower during its Saturday showdown with Stanford at Autzen Stadium.
Justin Flowe, the Ducks’ starting Mac linebacker, did not go through warmups before the game and it appears he will not be available for Saturday’s showdown with the Cardinal, which is set to kick off at 8 p.m. PT.
Flowe, a former 5-star recruit who has played just two games in two college seasons due to injuries, has been dinged up this season. He did not play in Oregon’s Week 3 win over BYU, and played just 16 snaps last weekend against Washington State.
In three games this season, Flowe has tallied 10 tackles and two tackles for loss. Jeffrey Bassa, Jackson LaDuke, and Keith Brown are expected to see plenty of playing time in his absence.

Oregon receiver Caleb Chapman and offensive lineman Bram Walden were not seen during warmups either. Both have dealt with minor injuries this season, and Chapman has not played since Week 1.
Running back Byron Cardwell went through warmups for the Ducks and appears to be full-go. He has not played in either of the past two games despite being in uniform on both occasions. According to coach Dan Lanning, he has been dealing with a minor injury.
