“I feel like they have a good knowledge, a really good knowledge of what we're doing, because they're, the reason I say that is they're asking great questions. You know, it's not just like I'm talking and it's numb, and it's not, I'm talking and then they make, what about this? What about that? What about that?

OSU’s season opens at Houston September 5th
Former Oregon Ducks wide receiver Traeshon Holden is searching for his next opportunity. The Dallas Cowboys waived Holden after signing outside linebacker Von Miller. In Saturday's preseason opener against the Seahawks, Holden competed for a spot in the receiver room with CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, KaVontae Turpin, Ryan Flournoy and Camden Brown, among others. He didn't help his case when he muffed a punt. Holden was an undrafted free agent out of Oregon in 2025 and spent the entire season on the practice squad.
