Ranking the 25 best Oregon Ducks since 2000: No. 6 — Kenjon Barner

Over the last 25 years, the Oregon Ducks have been one of the single best teams in all of college football, sitting near the top of the sport for the better part of a quarter-century. Since 2000, Oregon has compiled an overall record of 239-83 (.742), with just two losing seasons during that span. They've been to 24 bowl games, won three Rose Bowls, been to a pair of College Football Playoffs, and appeared in two National Championships. They've seen a Heisman Trophy winner in Marcus Mariota and had 99 players selected in the NFL Draft. It's safe to say that when looking at the nation's best in this millennium, Oregon belongs in the conversation. But who are the players who helped get Nike University into that conversation? That's a different question entirely. To celebrate the quarter-century mark, we're going to dive into that question over the next month as we approach the start of the 2025 season. The Ducks have had hundreds of memorable and beloved players over the years, many of whom will live on forever in some way. But who is the best of the best? That answer, of course, is subjective. When reviewing the numbers and conducting our research, we took several factors into account: career statistics, overall impact and success, legacy, fan adoration, and NFL success. Boiling 25 years of Oregon football down to 25 players is no easy task, and not one that we took lightly. Dozens of players were left on the cutting room floor who deserve a spot in the top 25, and at some point, subtracting names off the list started to feel like pulling teeth. But in the end, we were left with 25 players, whom we will honor over the next few weeks. If you want to catch up, let's take a look at how we've gotten to where we're at in the rankings: Today, let's continue with No. 6 — the TD machine, Kenjon Barner. Player Overview Kenjon Barner will always be remembered in Oregon football history for his electrifying nature of play, as he was a threat to take it to the house on any given touch. Competing during head coach Chip Kelly's tenure with the Ducks, Barner was the perfect back to execute Kelly's breakneck speed offensive. Barner's combination of quickness, contact balance and overall toughness led him to being considered one of the top running backs in all of college football at his peak. As the years have gone by, numerous running backs have donned the green and yellow; but Barner's legacy lives on as one of the most beloved players in Oregon football history. Kenjon Barner's Career Stats 49 Games — 582 rushes, 3,623 yards, 48 TD Kenjon Barner's Single Best Season 2012 — 278 rushes, 1,767 yards, 21 TD, 20 catches, 256 receiving yards, 2 TD In 2012, Barner and De'Anthony Thomas formed one of the best backfield duos that college football has ever seen. They combined for 39 touchdowns, an unthinkable number in a 13-game season. Barner was the lead back, revealing himself as the perfect chess piece in Kelly's innovative scheme. Barner's efforts earned him consensus All-American honors and led the way to a 12-win Ducks season, capping the year off with a convincing Fiesta Bowl victory over the Kansas State Wildcats. Barner led the way on the ground, rushing for 143 yards on 30 carries in his final collegiate game. This was also the season where Barner set records against the USC Trojans, rushing 38 times for 321 yards and 5 touchdowns. Kenjon Barner's Historical Records Kenjon Barner NFL Draft The Carolina Panthers selected Barner in the sixth round with the 182nd overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft. He joined fellow Duck Jonathan Stewart in the Panthers' backfield. Kenjon Barner's NFL Success Barner's nine-year career was spent with five different NFL franchises: the Panthers, Philadelphia Eagles, New England Patriots, Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While his career rushing stats amounted to just 416 yards and three touchdowns, Barner was a key special teams ace, returning punts and kickoffs as well as being heavily involved in other special teams units. His last season was in 2021 with the Buccaneers, as he finished his career as a three-time Super Bowl champion. Kenjon Barner's Lasting Legacy While Barner's play on the field created countless memories for Duck fans, his lasting legacy involves the highest praise in all of sports: winner. Barner was a key piece on Oregon's 2011 national title runner-up team and had an All-American senior season in helping lead the Ducks to 12 victories, with his three Super Bowl rings in the pros just selling home the point even more. Barner's legacy is now living on in the media world as he carves out a career in the media world, working as a TV analyst and reporter for Big Ten Network.

Packers president: Mark Murphy era ends, Ed Policy era begins in Green Bay

Roughly 13 months after being elected the new president and CEO of the Green Bay Packers, Ed Policy assumed the role from Mark Murphy at Friday's Annual Meeting of Shareholders inside Lambeau Field. Murphy, who reached the mandatory retirement age of 70 in July, spoke for the final time as Packers president before handing over responsibilities to Policy, who has been preparing to take over for the last year under Murphy. The changing of the guard is now official, and a new era begins in Green Bay. Policy joined the Packers organization in 2012. He spent six years as vice president and general counsel before being promoted to chief operating officer and general counsel in 2018. Policy, the son of former NFL executive Carmen Policy, was previously an executive consultant for the NFL and a nine-year run as an executive for the Arena Football League, including three years as commissioner. In Green Bay, Policy has served as the organization's legal leader and helped lead the development of Titletown. Across 17 seasons under Murphy's leadership, the Packers won Super Bowl XLV, eight NFC North titles and made the postseason 13 times. The team also invested millions and millions of dollars to upgrade Lambeau Field, improve facilities and work areas for players and coaches and develop Titletown areas around the stadium, and Murphy was instrumental in getting the 2025 NFL draft to Green Bay. Murphy is also leaving the Packers with a corporate reserve fund of almost $600 million. The Packers Board of Directors elected Policy as Murphy's successor on June 24, 2024. He officially assumed the role on July 25, 2025.

Deion Sanders to hold press conference with Colorado medical team amid mysterious health battle

Deion Sanders provided a brief, positive health update Friday, and it seems the full reveal of his medical battle that has had him laying low this offseason is coming soon. Sanders tweeted 'Back and Feeling Great!' on X on Friday morning with his third season as Colorado's coach nearing, and will hold a press conference Monday with his medical team, which features staffers from CU Anschutz and UC Health, to 'provide general and team updates,' the school said in a release. The 57-year-old Sanders has not offered many details about the mysterious illness that has kept the camera friendly coach out of the spotlight this offseason. Advertisement 4 Deion Sanders at Big 12 media day on July 9. AP He missed part of the Buffaloes' spring and summer workouts due to the health issue, per ESPN, and also did not attend contract-stipulated summer football camps. Sanders told former NFL star cornerback Asante Samuel in May that 'what I'm dealing with right now is at a whole other level.' Advertisement The NFL Hall of Famer has battled various health scares in recent years, including having two toes amputated in 2021 and 2023 surgery for blood clots in his left leg. Sanders got a little testy at Big 12 media day earlier this month when pressed about the issue, although he downplayed any concern to ESPN. 4 Deion Sanders during Colorado's spring game in April. AP 'I'm already back,' Sanders told ESPN on July 9 at Big 12 media day. 'I'm here today. I'm handling my responsibilities. So I look forward to it. I can't wait. You've got to understand, some of the young (players) I haven't even met yet. I'm so excited about that.' Advertisement Sanders spent plenty of time this offseason at his compound in Canton, Texas, with his children joining him and providing infrequent health updates. 4 Deion Sanders coaching during the spring game. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect He said in a YouTube video posted July 20 by his oldest son, Deion Jr.. that, 'You know I'm still going through something' and 'I ain't all the way recovered.' Deion Jr. then referenced a 'battle that was fought and won' at the compound in his last YouTube video posted July 23. Advertisement Deion also recently visited son Shilo Sanders at the Buccaneers' facility while the undrafted safety attempts to crack the reigning NFC South champions' roster. 4 Deion Sanders (l) and Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles (d) during his recent visit. AP 'I'm kind of sad, I'm not gonna lie to you,' Deion Jr. said of leaving the compound. 'I learned to really actually love this place. … It's not even just about being here. It was like the battle that was fought here. The battle that was fought and won here. That's like the main important thing. Boys didn't left the house for two months. 'It's a blessing. He's gonna tell y'all whatever he went through very soon, and I've got a lot of it recorded on video. So, you'll be able to see what he went through.' Sanders faces perhaps his toughest coaching challenge this upcoming season since becoming Colorado's coach prior to the 2023 season. He will no longer have reigning Heisman winner and two-way phenom Travis Hunter, the No. 2 pick in the draft, or quarterback son Shedeur Sanders, who fell to the fifth round.
