Oregon quarterback Dante Moore suffers concussion against USC

Oregon star quarterback Dante Moore suffered a concussion on Saturday against USC, sources tell CBS Sports.

Moore, per sources, is believed to have avoided any further injury outside of the concussion.

He will go through concussion protocol and there is no immediate timeline for his return.

Moore left the game in the second quarter of Oregon's 41-27 win over USC after suffering a terrifying hit, which led to the ejection of Trojans linebacker Desman Stephens.

The game was stopped for several minutes after Moore's injury. He was carted off the field, put in an ambulance and taken to a local hospital.

After the game, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning provided this update on Moore.

"He's in recovery, so I don't want to speak too soon, but he's moving; he has the ability to move," Oregon coach Dan Lanning said after the game. "So, we'll continue to assess him, but I don't want to speak too soon, but he's moving."

Moore completed 8 of 10 passes early in the game against USC before exiting.

Dylan Raiola took Moore's place in the lineup and led Oregon on six scoring drives in seven attempts.

A third-team all-Big Ten selection a season ago, Moore entered the season as a projected first round pick.
