• C.J. Beathard: Headed to Miami

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  The Dolphins signed Beathard to the practice squad Wednesday. Beathard was released by the Jaguars at the end of training camp with an injury settlement due to a groin injury he picked up in preseason action. He wasn't able to catch on with the Giants following a workout in late September, but the 2017 third-round pick will return to Florida and serve as the Dolphins' practice squad quarterback. Tyler Huntley (shoulder) and Skylar Thompson (ribs) are nursing injuries while Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday. Tim Boyle is the only healthy quarterback on the Dolphins' active roster, meaning Beathard could be elevated from the practice squad to serve as the backup or emergency quarterback against the Cardinals on Sunday.

  Beathard (groin) tried out for the Giants on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. The quarterback was released with an injury settlement by the Jaguars in late August after injuring his groin during the second preseason game, missing the last preseason contest and losing the backup quarterback battle to Mac Jones. The Giants have three healthy signal-callers at the moment in Daniel Jones, Drew Lock and Tommy DeVito. Beathard played in seven regular-season games (107 offensive snaps) for the Jaguars in 2023.

  08/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Beathard injured his groin during Saturday's exhibition game against Tampa Bay and has been ruled out from returning, John Shipley of SI.com reports. Trevor Lawrence didn't suit up Saturday, and Beathard entered as the second quarterback following Mac Jones. Beathard played the entire third quarter but was sacked on the final play of the period, and Jones reentered on Jacksonville's first series of the fourth. Jones and Beathard are battling for the backup QB role behind Trevor Lawrence, and Beathard could have his opportunity for that role diminish greatly if he's unable to take the field for the team's final preseason game Friday versus Atlanta. Beathard finished Saturday's contest having gone 5-for-7 for 40 passing yards while rushing twice for 10 yards. Meanwhile, Jones completed 16 of 23 pass attempts for 210 yards and two touchdowns while rushing six times for 14 yards. Neither quarterback threw an interception.

  Coach Doug Pederson said Thursday that Beathard will be the second quarterback to enter Saturday's preseason game against the Chiefs, John Shipley of SI.com reports. Beathard will get a chance to handle preseason reps Saturday after Trevor Lawrence has finished with his allotment of plays. That could be read as an indication that Beathard is currently ahead of Mac Jones in Jacksonville's backup quarterback competition, but real clarity on that front may not arrive until closer to the end of the preseason.
