Oregon spring practice observations: Jestin Jacobs returns, freshman defensive back absent

EUGENE — Linebacker Jestin Jacobs returned to practice but a freshman defensive back was among those absent from Oregon’s 10th spring practice.

Jacobs, who has missed the past two practices, was back in a limited capacity on Thursday at the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex. Dakoda Fields was among the players who were not in attendance, along with outside linebacker Jaxson Jones (knee) and offensive lineman Dave Iuli (unspecified), who have each been out.

Defensive back Daylen Austin was not with the team following his arrest Monday night and subsequent conditional release Wednesday afternoon.
