Jamari Johnson Eyes John Mackey Glory | Oregon Ducks Football News

Jamari Johnson is heating up the college football scene, earning a spot on the elite John Mackey Award watch list as Oregon’s top tight end contender. Despite playing behind a future NFL star last season, Johnson delivered with 510 yards and 3 touchdowns, catching at least one ball in every game for the final 14 contests. With seven Ducks named to national award lists this week—including three on Outland and Nagurski watch lists—Oregon’s preseason buzz is soaring. Ranked No. 2 by coaches, the Ducks open September 5 against Boise State, and Johnson’s breakout potential could be the key to their big run.
