Oregon’s secondary unit was looking to bounce back this year after struggling tremendously last season. On Sunday, the Ducks’ hopes of rebuilding on defense took a slight hit when it was reported that junior cornerback Chris Seisay has left the team.
The story was first reported by 247 Sports. 
Seisay was inserted into Oregon’s starting lineup as a redshirt freshman after former Duck standout Ifo Ekpre-Olomu was injured. Seisay started in Oregon’s Rose Bowl win over Florida State that, as well as its loss in the 2015 National Championship. He retained his starting spot at the start of last season, but missed eight games due to injury.
With the loss of Seisay, Oregon now has two returning cornerbacks with starting experience:  Junior Arrion Springs and sophomore Ugo Amadi. Senior Tyree Robinson also started at cornerback at times for the Ducks last year, but will likely shift back to his original position of saftey this year. Redshirt freshman Malik Lovette is also in the mix for a starting spot.
