Ryan Walk announces he will return to Oregon for 2022 season
Ryan Walk announced Friday that he intends to return to Oregon for the 2022 season.
In doing so, he solidified Oregon’s offensive line for next year and ensured that five of the Ducks’ top six O-linemen will be back in the fold.
George Moore is the only Oregon offensive lineman who saw major playing time this season who will not return next year, as he has exhausted his eligibility.
With Walk back in the mix next season, the Ducks will return five linemen who played a combined 3,346 snaps in 2021.
According to Pro Football Focus, here is the 2021 snap breakdown for Oregon’s five returning offensive linemen.

With Walk and Bass both committing to return for the Ducks next season, there are still a handful of Oregon players who are weighing their NFL Draft options.
All-American safety Verone McKinley III said after the Alamo Bowl loss that he will take some time to decide whether he will return for his senior year. Running backs CJ Verdell and Travis Dye, and tight end/defensive end DJ Johnson are also draft-eligible and have not announced if they will return.
