Well, crap. Sad for him. He seems to find so much joy in the game.

Time for the backups to take it over. They recruit well, so they should have it covered. He has been a very good player over the seasons.

I get nervous about losing him for his productivity and his inspiration to the team. One could argue after Bryce left he was the last hardcore baller left on the team. Not the highest level athlete, but just had a drive stuck on 100 percent every snap.

We are really going to miss him. Rushing and Jones will have to fill his shoes sooner than we thought. I don't think Wyatt is big enough for an every down string side DE, but I could be wrong.

I'd like to see what Nasir Wyatt can do in a full time starting role. He's certainly done well in the spot duty that he's been given so far.

Brutal. Really was hoping to hear a good report about Teitum all day.

I think the 2010 Ducks squad that made the National Championship game against Auburn missed only 3 games by starters the whole 13 game season (on both offense and defense).

Right now, depending on how things shake out, it looks like this year, through game 12, the Ducks will have lost ~52 games by starters.

Don't know game totals but my memory says we lost 13 starters by the time we played tOSU for the Natty.

Big loss for sure. Wish Tatum all the best. Thanks for being an all time great Duck. That fake punt will be talked about for decades.

I feel terrible for TT. He was playing so well and was one of the team leaders. Loved seeing him used on offense.

Thank you for all you’ve poured into the program and best of luck in the NFL. Once a Duck…

The hits just keep on coming. 🤬 Healing blessings for Mr. TT.

Just absolutely utterly brutal......

Well this.....SUCKS!

Loved his passion and leadership on defense. Seemed to get even better as the season progressed. Probably won't see him play again as an Oregon Duck.

Some NFL team is going to get a STUD!

Thanks for you commitment to OBD and good fortune to you on your professional NFL career.

Once a Duck.

Always a Duck.

I think the games lost by starters during the season leading up to the Ohio State National Championship was ~29 (about half coming on the OL). That number however doesn't count two starters who were lost for the season before it started (Johnstone, Addison) as they never suited up in 2014 (and the new starters for those spots were selected in fall camp). Adding in 30 starts there (which probably is the more accurate number) reaches 59 starts in 15 games (30 on the OL).

This is sad! I hope he didn't hurt it on the jump pass, but if he did, what a great way to go out! A win against OSU in the Horseshoe!

It would be interesting to see Tank Jones take some snaps. He's had 3/4ths of a season to develop and he already has TT's size.

During the past 3 years Teitum has become absolutely my favorite player, I know I am really going to miss him.

This will give Wyatt a lot more snaps.,,

Wasn't then. Was on a seemingly harmless pass rush. Was a non-contact injury. Clear got stuck or over extended as he tried to change direction.

He did have an awesome day, otherwise.

He does still have eligibility left after this season so he could come back. But if he's evaluated as an early round draft pick then I wouldn't blame him for taking that path.

He is a second or third round NFL pick, and he DOES have a fifth year to return if he wants to.

Don't see it. If he comes back and hurts that knee again, NFL career is toast.

Take the lower round hit, hopefully get on a better team, "live long and prosper."
