Less than two hours before the team's season opening game against Oregon, Stanford announced that three players—quarterback Davis Mills, wide receiver Connor Wedington and defensive end Trey LaBounty—would miss the game due to "COVID-19 test results and contact tracing protocols."
The school did not specify in its statement whether the players have all tested positive, or if they've been in contact with someone who has.
The Pac-12 had two of its opening weekend games canceled prior to Saturday: Cal-Washington and Arizona-Utah. The game between Cal and Washington was canceled due to a Cal player testing positive, while Utah had multiple players test positive.
