WSU Cougars links: Oregon RB Royce Freeman will likely play vs. WSU, but 11 Ducks have missed time due to injury this season

Oregon has had bad luck with the injury bug so far this season, with Olympic sprinter wide receiver Devon Allen and starting left tackle Tyrell Crosby both sustaining season ending injuries in the Ducks’ defeat to Nebraska.

Running back Royce Freeman also missed the Ducks’ defeat to Colorado last week with a leg injury, but according to Ryan Thorburn of the Eugene (Ore.) Register-Guard, Freeman will be back this week just in time to face Washington State at Martin Stadium.

RB coach Gary Campbell said Royce Freeman has been full-go in practice. WR Dwayne Stanford said TE Pharaoh Brown will also play at Wazzu.
