CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) – The Oregon State Beavers have embarked on fall practice in workmanlike manner, typical of low-key coach Mike Riley.
There was no big local “media day” with speeches and prognostication about the upcoming season. Instead, the Beavers simply started practicing this week.
And all eyes were on senior flanker James Rodgers, who is coming off two knee surgeries.
Rodgers was cleared last week to practice in “limited fashion.” Riley said he would remain at that status for an undetermined amount of time.
Rodgers was out on the field on Monday, wearing little brother Jacquizz Rodgers’ Oregon State No. 1 jersey. Jacquizz Rodgers decided to leave the Beavers a year early and is now with the Atlanta Falcons.
