(Eugene, OR)  --  Senior linebacker AJ Hotchkins is leaving Oregon's football program with plans to play elsewhere as a graduate transfer.  Hotchkins suffered a leg injury in September and has not played since.  He plans to use 2017 as a medical redshirt would be eligible for the NCAA's medical hardship waiver.  Hotchkins would have one remaining year of eligibility.  The Ducks are on a bye this week.
