Ducks coach Dan Lanning said Dickey, who injured his right leg during UO’s spring game in April, “will be a little limited to start fall camp (on Aug. 31), but should be good” by the start of the season. Dickey had two catches for eight yards in the spring game before the injury, the specifics of which are unspecified. He had one catch for seven yards while redshirting last season and is expected to be on the two deep this fall. Safety Kobe Savage, who also suffered an injury during the spring game, is expected to be healthy to open fall camp, Lanning said, as is cornerback Dontae Manning.
