Three-Time Super Bowl Champion Kenjon Barner Inducted Into Oregon Hall Of Fame

Former Oregon Duck running back Kenjon Barner will be enshrined into the Oregon Hall of Fame for 2024. 

Former Oregon Duck running back Kenjon Barner will be enshrined into the Oregon Hall of Fame for 2024. 

The announcement is timely, as the three-time Super Bowl champion is in Eugene to guest coach the Oregon spring football game on Saturday April 27th. 

One of the most-beloved Ducks ever, Barner played running back for the Ducks from 2009-2012. Under then-Oregon coach Chip Kelly, Barner earned consensus All-American honors in 2012. One of the most-memorable Barner moments came vs. USC in 2023, when the southern-California native set a school-record 321 rushing yards on a career-high 38 attempts and tied for a career-high five touchdowns.

Barner still owns the Oregon single-game record for rushing yards for that incredible performance at USC on Nov. 3, 2012.
