A new video captures the moment tight end Kenyon Sadiq received the call from the New York Jets, with Oregon Ducks football coaches right by his side during the 2026 NFL Draft. The scene speaks volumes about the program’s culture, relationships and the kind of support that extends far beyond the field.
In his hometown state Idaho, Sadiq anxiously watched the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft from the couch with his friends and family. He was joined by Oregon coach Dan Lanning, offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer (his former tight ends coach) and special teams coordinator Joe Lorig.
The Ducks staff flew out to be with the consensus first-round projection on night one, an uncommon effort that underscores the program’s commitment to its players , even when they move onto the next level.
