Oregon RB/WR De'Anthony Thomas took “a few more” reps at running back in practice on Monday, according to running backs coach Gary Campbell. Thomas also continued to work out at receiver.

Thomas should see a few more carries this week, but look for him to continue to be used as a slot receiver. If LaMichael James (elbow) is unable to play, Kenjon Barner will get the start at running back. Having both Thomas and Barner (or James) on the field at the same time will most likely be the Ducks' game plan.
