Trio of Oregon Ducks named Associated Press pre-season All-Americans

We know that the Oregon Ducks are expected to be one of the best teams in the nation this fall, contending for a national championship as new members of the Big Ten. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise to see that a trio of the Ducks’ best players have been named preseason All-Americans, according to the Associated Press .

On Monday, quarterback Dillon Gabriel, wide receiver Tez Johnson, and right tackle Ajani Cornelius were all named second-team pre-season All-Americans, per AP.

These honors are just the last of many for the three of these players, all of whom have been named to multiple awards watch lists leading into the season.

Johnson and Cornelius were named first-team preseason All-Americans by the Sporting News.

27 total players were selected for the first team offense and defense on Monday, 10 of which came from the SEC, with eight coming from the Big Ten. The Ohio State Buckeyes led the Big Ten with four players named to the first team.
