Numerous professional Ducks have been making headlines this week. With all the news accumulating, here's a rundown of all the happenings of the past few days for former Oregon stars currently playing in the NFL and NBA:

1) Former Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Marcus Mariota will once again be working in a new Tennessee Titan offensive coordinator. Now entering his fifth NFL season, Mariota has already played for three different offensive coordinators and four play callers to date.

He'll play four his fourth new coordinator this season, as Matt LaFleur left Tennessee to become the Green Bay Packers head coach on Jan. 8. He has been replaced by Arthur Smith. Smith acted as the team's tight ends coach. Jason Michael and Terry Robiskie have also acted as OCs for Mariota in Tennessee.

"Art has been steady support since I’ve gotten into the league,” Mariota said, via Jim Wyatt of the Titans' website. “It’s been a true blessing to have gotten to know him, and I’m excited to work with him. His ability to consistently get our guys prepared week in and week out has been impressive. I looking forward to watching him in his new role.”

Mariota is entering a pivotal season for his professional career. He owns a 27-28 starting record in Tennessee and has thrown for 12,004 yards with 69 touchdowns and 42 interceptions.

2) Oregon career-shot block leader Jordan Bell appeared to get into a spat with Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr in the fourth quarter of the team's 130-111 win over the Lakers.

Cameras cut to Bell and Kerr sharing some frustrations with each other on the sideline. It had followed a few rough offensive possessions for the second-year big man.

“Total misinterpretation of something I said,” Kerr told the Mercury News after the game. “We cleared it up.”

Bell has seen his minutes cut back this season. He averaged 14.2 minutes per game as a rookie, but has averaged just 10.9 this season. That number has fallen more in January, when he's averaged just 7.9 minutes per game, including one coach's decision DNP.

3) Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks, who played with Bell at Oregon for three seasons, is also going through a rough time. It was reported a few weeks ago that Brooks would miss the remainder of his sophomore due to a broken toe.

Earlier this week, CBSSports reported that Brooks had undergone surgery to repair the toe and would be expected to miss the next four months. The time away, per the report, included "any weight-bearing activities for one month".

Like Bell, the second professional season hasn't gone quite as well for Brooks either. Last season he appeared in all 82 games, including 74 starts, and scored 11.0 points per contest. This year he played in just 18, did not start a game, and averaged 7.5 points per contest.

4) New Orleans Saints center Max Unger was selected to his third NFL Pro Bowl, but he will not play in the game, it was announced on Tuesday.

Unger is one of four New Orleans teammates who will sit out the game following Sunday's gut-wrenching overtime NFC championship loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

This was Unger's first Pro Bowl selection since he was chosen in consecutive seasons in 2012 and 2013.
