Which Oregon players signed as undrafted free agents, and where
The 2022 NFL Draft has come and gone. All told, it was a relatively disappointing three days for those with ties to the Oregon program.
The Ducks had just one player selected — Kayvon Thibodeaux, who went No. 5 overall to the New York Giants on Thursday — marking the fewest players drafted from Oregon since 2017, when none were selected.
Coming into the Draft, Oregon All-American safety Verone McKinley III was expected to be a day three selection, and cornerback Mykael Wright also popped up on a few draft boards.
Neither heard their name called, but as soon as the draft ended, a flurry of Ducks were announced to have signed as undrafted free agents.
As of Sunday morning, a total of six Oregon players are known to have signed as undrafted free agents.
That group is as follows:
- Quarterback Anthony Brown Jr. signed with the Baltimore Ravens
- Offensive lineman George Moore IV signed with the Green Bay Packers
- Wide receiver Johnny Johnson III signed with the Houston Texans
- Safety Verone McKinley III signed with the Miami Dolphins
- Running back CJ Verdell signed with the Indianapolis Colts
- Wide receiver Devon Williams signed with the Baltimore Ravens
At the time this story was published, Wright had still not publicly reached an agreement with a team.
