The story

As of

As a true freshman he showed exactly why he was the top-ranked receiver in his class: 34 catches, 497 yards, three touchdowns and a rushing score across 11 games — including a seven-catch, 89-yard outing against Penn State — before a knee injury ended his regular season early. Now projected as an Oregon starter opposite a healthy Evan Stewart, he's the hyped underclassman of this group. The forward stakes are the sophomore leap: the talent and the freshman flashes are there, and a full, healthy season in a featured role is where a No. 1 recruit becomes a star. For Moore, 2026 is the year the recruiting ranking becomes production.

Read the rest of the story

So far in 2026 Moore has 18 catches for 311 yards and four touchdowns.

Update (Oct. 28, 2026): Oregon lost 21-10 at Illinois as a 10.5-point favorite on Oct. 24 and is 4-3. Moore has 34 catches for 417 yards and four touchdowns through seven games, with 9 catches for 70 yards at Illinois.

Play style

Moore is an explosive, big-play receiver whose freshman tape already grades like a featured weapon. Our play-by-play has him in the 86th percentile for explosive-catch rate and the 77th for both yards-per-catch and touchdown rate — the chunk-play juice you'd expect from the class's top-ranked receiver, with the production cut short by the knee. He wins with speed and suddenness, the kind of receiver who turns a short throw into a long gain. As the highest-ceiling underclassman in this group, the projection is straightforward: a full, healthy season and a featured role, and the flashes become a breakout.
