Andrew Beck: Lands in Houston
Rotowire
The Texans signed Beck to the practice squad Thursday.
Beck was cut from the Packers' practice squad Oct. 22 after reaching the three-game maximum of gameday elevations to the active roster. Beck will be available for elevation to the Texans' 53-man roster should Houston need depth at running back and on special teams. He's also played tight end and could be useful there after the Texans placed Teagan Quitoriano (knee) on injured reserve.

Texans' Andrew Beck: Comes off PUP list
Rotowire
The Texans activated Beck (calf) off the active/PUP list Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Beck was spotted participating in Monday's practice, so it seems as if he's moved past his strained calf. The sixth-year pro will spend his second season in Houston in 2024 after playing 507 total snaps (322 offensive) for the Texans last year. Now that Beck has returned to full health, he's expected to remain Houston's top fullback in 2024.

Beck drew a questionable designation due to a calf injury in each of the last three weeks. He played through the issue the last two games and will do so again in Baltimore. Look for him to take on his usual role at fullback assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Beck caught both of his targets for six yards, including a one-yard touchdown, in Sunday's 36-22 loss to Cleveland.

Texans' Andrew Beck: Rips off 26-yard gain
Rotowire
Beck logged 15 of 56 snaps on offense and hauled in his lone target for a 26-yard reception in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets.
Beck's third-quarter reception was the biggest play of the day for a Texans offense that struggled to move the ball even before starting quarterback C.J. Stroud exited the game in the fourth quarter with a concussion. The fullback has now recorded a reception in three straight contests, but he's unlikely to emerge as a higher-priority option in the passing attack in the final four weeks of the regular season regardless of whether Stroud is able to play in any of those contests.

Texans' Andrew Beck: Plays Saturday
Rotowire
Beck (knee) played during Saturday's 28-3 preseason loss to the Dolphins. He did not catch his lone target.
Beck, who hurt his knee during the first preseason game, was on the field for the team's second game Saturday. He was part of a goal-line package on the Texans' first drive and was targeted in the red zone, although quarterback C.J. Stroud was under immediate pressure, and it's uncertain if Beck was the primary read on the play. Both Beck and tight end Dalton Keene lined up as a blocking back on separate plays for Dameon Pierce at the goal line.

Broncos' Andrew Beck: Questionable for Week 12
Rotowire
Beck (hamstring) is considered questionable to play Sunday against the Panthers, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Beck has been considered day-to-day after missing Denver's last two games with a hamstring injury. While Broncos coach Nathanial Hackett previously said that he is hopeful the 26-year-old will be able to return Week 12, the tight end remained limited during each practice leading up to Sunday's contest versus Carolina. Beck caught three of his six targets over the first eight weeks of the season, and his biggest impact will likely come on special teams moving forward.
