Oregon's Makhi Hughes Will Redshirt the 2025 Season After Limited Role

The decision preserves two years of eligibility under his earlier medical hardship waiver.

Overview

  • Head coach Dan Lanning said Hughes requested the redshirt and Oregon will honor it.
  • Through four games, Hughes logged 17 carries for 70 yards and two receptions for 24 yards and did not travel to the Penn State game.
  • He was behind Dierre Hill Jr., Jayden Limar, Noah Whittington and Jordon Davison in a crowded backfield rotation.
  • Oregon’s committee has produced a top-tier rushing attack, with Hill at 270 yards on 26 carries and Davison leading the team with seven touchdowns.
  • Coaches praised Hughes’ daily approach, and the redshirt keeps his options open to remain with the Ducks or consider another transfer.
