Which former Oregon football players are on NFL active rosters?

A whopping three dozen former Oregon football players made an active NFL roster spot ahead of Week 1, including two quarterbacks expected to start in Justin Herbert and Bo Nix.

All seven Oregon Ducks selected in the 2026 NFL Draft made their respective rosters, including first-round picks Kenyon Sadiq and Dillon Thieneman, and several former Ducks will make their NFL season debuts at a later date, starting the year on the injured/reserve list like former quarterback Dillon Gabriel.

With the season set to start with a Super Bowl rematch between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots on Wednesday, here’s a look at every former Oregon Duck featured on an NFL roster heading into Week 1.
