Davison Named Big Ten Freshman of the Week

EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon running back Jordon Davison was announced on Monday as the Big Ten Freshman of the Week for his performance in the Ducks’ 21-7 win over Wisconsin last Saturday.

Davison becomes the third Duck to earn a Big Ten weekly honor this season, joining Jerry Mixon (Defense, Week 3) and Dante Moore (Offense, Week 5). 

Davison led the Ducks against the Badgers with a career-high 102 rushing yards while scoring each of Oregon’s first two touchdowns. It was his second straight 100-yard rushing game after going for 100 the previous week at Rutgers. 

Davison leads the Ducks this season with 10 rushing touchdowns, most among FBS freshmen and tied for No. 7 nationally. He is now tied for third in UO single-season history for rushing touchdowns by freshmen, joining Royce Freeman (2014) as the only UO true freshmen to rush for double-digit scores in a season. 

The Santa Ana, Calif., native logged his second multi-TD game of the season and has scored at least one touchdown in seven of eight games in 2025. 

Davison and the No. 6 Ducks (7-1, 4-1 Big Ten) are on a bye this week before traveling to Iowa on Nov. 8.
