You are welcome. There is always something to learn about mushrooms, even for those with experience use caution when trying to ID. You were wise not to eat this. Enjoy finding new fungi.

This is not pleurotus. Oyster mushrooms grow on dead wood. They do not grow upright from the forest floor.https://www.mushroomexpert.com/pleurotus_ostreatus.html

This is a Boletus. it is not possible to ID this without examining the spores under magnification. Many Boletes flash blue on their flesh, in this case (flashing blue) it is to be avoided for consumption. There are numerous species of Boletus in the US.
