When Every Former Oregon Duck Participates in NFL Rookie Mini Camp
Follow the transition of former Oregon Ducks players to the NFL with our list of rookie mini camp dates, encompassing both draft selections and undrafted free agents.
Following a successful collegiate stint in Eugene, eight former Oregon Ducks players were selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, five more signed as undrafted free agents, and several received rookie minicamp invitations. Around the league, camp is soon set to be underway.
The primary focus of the rookie minicamp is for players to be immersed in a low-pressure environment, allowing them to absorb the game's nuances without the intense competition of the regular season. This setting enables them to ask questions, make mistakes, and learn from them without fear of repercussions.
