Carrington led the Ducks last season with 606 receiving yards and five touchdowns on 43 catches. Carrington has seen his receiving totals dip each year since he recorded 704 yards as a freshman in 2014.

With an outgoing class of wideouts like Oklahoma's Dede Westbrook, Washington's John Ross, and Western Michigan's Corey Davis, another year at Oregon could be just what Carrington needs before he decides to turn pro.
