Mario Cristobal says Anthony Brown should be ‘good to go’ for Arizona game

Crisis averted.

After Oregon’s 48-7 victory over Stony Brook, Ducks head coach Mario Cristobal gave an update on his injured quarterback Anthony Brown.

According to Cristobal, Brown “took a pretty good shot” towards the end of the first half. Brown was sacked on consecutive plays right before halftime and was seen walking off the field a bit woozy.

He didn’t return from the locker room for the second half.

Oregon had to turn to true freshman Ty Thompson to play in what was a close game and had meaningful snaps. The Ducks led just by 10 points at 17-7 when Thompson came in.

Luckily for everyone involved, Thompson played well, going 6-of-9 for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Before Brown was knocked out of the game, he was having a very productive night as he was 14-of-18 for 159 yards and a touchdown.

Hopefully Brown is healthy enough to play against Arizona next week, but if not, the Ducks know what they have in Thompson should they have to go without Brown for any length of time.
