ESPN.com's Chris Low relayed the update.

According to the Oregonian's John Canzano, Freeman had ice on his right knee and his leg up on the bench with a towel over his head.

Freeman quickly established himself as Oregon's top option on the ground during his first two years in Eugene. His combination of size (6'0", 229 lbs), power and quickness allowed him to live up to the hype of a highly touted recruit, which he was coming out of California.
