The University of Oregon said it is looking into a video that surfaced which shows Ducks outside linebacker DJ Johnson striking a person in Oregon State gear on the field after Saturday's civil war game at Reser Stadium.
In the video, Johnson can be seen punching a person from behind. He is then restrained and led away by what appears to be two Oregon staff members.
