2024 Rush/Rec Projections
Bound for NFL
Verdell (leg) announced Monday via his personal Twitter account that he will forgo his remaining eligibility at Oregon to enter the 2022 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
Verdell suffered a season-ending leg injury back in October, and though he should be back to full health for spring practices, he'll instead try his luck in the professional ranks. The star running back has struggled a times with injuries throughout his career, but when he was healthy, he showed considerable burst and playmaking ability. Verdell concludes five-year stint in Eugene with 2,920 rushing yards, 59 catches, 619 receiving yards and 30 total touchdowns.

2019 Fantasy Outlook
Oregon has constructed an SEC-sized offensive line that will maul PAC-12 defenses, and it returns every starter from 2018. Verdell ran for 1,018 yards and 10 scores in his first season and reeled in 27 of 34 targets, showing a complete skill set. Oregon has the running back depth to make it unnecessary to overuse Verdell, but even if Verdell sees a workload similar to his 188 rushes from last season, that’s still enough to make him a fringe top-30 fantasy running back. Troy Dye will also be a viable option in the Oregon backfield.
