  • Emergency QB for Week 13

    Beathard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Beathard served as the Jaguars' backup quarterback for the last two games behind Mac Jones due to Trevor Lawrence being sidelined with an AC joint sprain in his non-throwing shoulder. However, with Lawrence returning Sunday, Jones will be the No. 2 quarterback while Beathard serves in an emergency role. As the emergency quarterback, Beathard would only see the field if both Lawrence and Jones were to be knocked out of the game due to injury.

  • Moving back to Jacksonville

    Beathard signed with the Jaguars' 53-man roster Wednesday.

    Analysis: Beathard was on the Dolphins' practice squad before the move and will provide quarterback depth for Jacksonville while Trevor Lawrence nurses a shoulder injury. The Iowa product was with the Jaguars during training camp and appeared in seven games for the team last season. If Lawrence is unable to play Sunday against the Vikings, Beathard would likely operate as the No. 2 quarterback, behind Mac Jones.

  • Headed to Miami

    The Dolphins signed Beathard to the practice squad Wednesday.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • Healthy again

    Beathard (groin) tried out for the Giants on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Released with injury settlement

    Beathard (groin) was released with an injury settlement Tuesday.

    Analysis: Beathard is now free to sign with another team after losing a preseason competition with Mac Jones for the No. 2 QB job in Jacksonville. Beathard suffered a groin injury during the Jaguars' second preseason game and didn't play in the final exhibition.

  • Sits out Friday, as expected

    Beathard (groin) didn't play in Friday's preseason win over Atlanta, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports..

    Analysis: Beathard's absence from the contest was expected, as he suffered a groin injury during Jacksonville's second exhibition game last Saturday versus Tampa Bay and didn't practice all week. Trevor Lawrence started for the Jaguars on Friday and produced 92 yards through the air along with two touchdowns while completing eight of 10 pass attempts, and Mac Jones played the bulk of the game and looked good in completing 13 of 18 pass attempts for 113 yards and a touchdown. The performance may have…read more

  • Unlikely to suit up this week

    Beathard (groin) won't play in Friday's preseason finale against the Falcons according to head coach Doug Pederson, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Beathard suffered the injury during Saturday's exhibition game against the Buccaneers and was unable to play in the fourth quarter. The Iowa product is currently battling former Patriots quarterback Mac Jones for the backup role behind Trevor Lawrence, and it's unclear how much his unavailability for the team's final preseason contest may impact his chances of sticking on the roster.

  • Suffers groin injury

    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.

    Analysis: 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…read more

  • Entering lineup second Saturday

    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.

    Analysis: 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.

  • Expected to compete with Jones

    Beathard is expected to compete with Mac Jones -- who is slated to be traded from the Patriots to the Jaguars -- to be Trevor Lawrence's top backup in 2024, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The report notes that Beathard is in the final year of a two-year, $4.5 million contract that he signed prior to last season. Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, part of the Jaguars' motivation for the deal is that Beathard has been banged up at times during his stint with the team, with Jones -- a 2021 first-rounder -- giving the team a healthy backup option with plenty of starting experience ahead of the coming season.

  • Solid season as backup

    Beathard appeared in seven games this season, starting one, and completed 40 of 53 passes for 349 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions. He also had eight carries for 35 yards.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old primarily worked in mop-up duty but saw significant action in Weeks 16 and 17 with Trevor Lawrence injured. Beathard played well in those contests, completing 28 of 39 passes for 272 yards and a touchdown, helping Jacksonville to a victory in his lone start. He's under contract for 2024 and seems likely to work as Lawrence's backup once more.

  • Returning to backup role

    Beathard will serve as the Jaguars' backup quarterback for Sunday's game against the Titans with Trevor Lawrence (shoulder/finger) active for the contest and cleared to start, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: While Lawrence missed the first game of his NFL career in Week 17 due to an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder, Beathard stepped in to make the start and managed the game effectively in the Jaguars' 26-0 win over Carolina, completing 17 of 24 pass attempts for 178 yards with no touchdowns or turnovers. Lawrence wasn't involved in practice as anything more than a limited participant this week and still isn't fully healthy, but he'll get the green light to return to the lineup as…read more

  • Manages game effectively in win

    Beathard completed 17 of 24 passes for 178 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and rushed three times for 24 yards in the Jaguars' 26-0 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Analysis: As expected, Beathard played a game-manager role in his spot start for Trevor Lawrence (shoulder), and he carried out his assignment with plenty of success. Beathard connected with seven different targets overall and did complete a 48-yard pass to Jamal Agnew, but he otherwise unsurprisingly kept most of his pass attempts in the short-to-medium passing windows. If Lawrence can't suit up in Week 18 on the road against the Titans, Beathard will be called upon again as the Jaguars attempt to punch…read more

  • Starting for Lawrence in Week 17

    Beathard will be the Jaguars' starting quarterback Sunday against the Panthers with Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) ruled out for that contest, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Lawrence emerged from a Week 16 loss at Tampa Bay with an AC joint sprain in his right throwing shoulder, which kept him off the practice field Wednesday through Friday. Now that Lawrence won't be available Sunday, Beathard is poised for his first start since Week 17 of the 2020 season for the 49ers. In six appearances subbing in for Lawrence this season, Beathard has completed 23 of 29 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown and also rushed five times for 11 yards.

    Beathard took full reps with the first-team offense at Wednesday's practice while Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) sat out the session, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Lawrence made a swift recovery from a concussion suffered Week 15 to make himself available for this past Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Buccaneers, but he missed the final 15 minutes of the game after sustaining an AC joint sprain to his throwing shoulder late in the third quarter. Beathard came off the bench for his fifth appearance of the season and directed the offense for Jacksonville's final three possessions, completing 11 of 15 pass attempts for 94 yards and a touchdown while adding six…read more

  • Remains backup for Week 14

    Beathard will serve as the backup quarterback in Sunday's game against the Browns with Trevor Lawrence (ankle) listed active for the contest and having been cleared to start, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Just six days after suffering what was reported as a right high-ankle sprain in Monday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Bengals, Lawrence will be able to return to the lineup without having to miss a game, even though his injury typically entails a multi-week recovery. The Jaguars were still concerned enough about Lawrence's health to sign another quarterback (Nathan Rourke) to the active roster Saturday, but Rourke will be a healthy inactive Sunday while Beathard sticks in the No. 2 role.

  • Available Week 14, if needed

    Beathard (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Analysis: Beathard's practice activity was affected this week to the injury he sustained to his left shoulder during his relief appearance in Monday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Bengals, but even though he's been cleared to play Week 14, he may not be needed. Trevor Lawrence has made rapid progress in his recovery from the right high-ankle sprain he suffered Monday and is being listed as questionable for Sunday's contest after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday.

  • Still limited Thursday

    Beathard (left shoulder) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, Jacksonville's franchise QB Trevor Lawrence, who is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, also was limited Thursday after missing Wednesday's session. Friday's injury report will add further context with regard to the duo's status for Sunday's game against the Browns, but Lawrence's ability to practice Thursday has brightened the prospects of him potentially being able to play this weekend.

Before he provided an update on the nature of his injury, Beathard looked to have hurt his left wrist against the Bengals, but he didn't end up missing any snaps while completing nine of 10 pass attempts for 63 yards to go with seven yards on his…read more

  • Relieves injured Lawrence in loss

    Beathard completed nine of 10 passes for 63 yards and rushed once for seven yards, without a touchdown or turnover, after replacing the injured Trevor Lawrence (ankle) in the fourth quarter of Monday's 34-31 overtime loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Beathard immediately put the ball on the ground at the end of a scramble on his first play after entering the game with 2:28 remaining, but a teammate managed to jump on top of it and keep alive a drive that culminated in a game-tying 40-yard field goal. The Jaguars won the overtime coin toss and got the ball, but that drive stalled out before the Bengals kicked a game-winning field goal on their ensuing possession. Lawrence hasn't missed a game since being drafted first overall in 2021, but…read more

  • Inks new deal with Jags

    The Jaguars extended Beathard on Friday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: After having signed a reported two-year deal with the Jaguars, Beathard is in line to remain the team's primary backup quarterback to starter Trevor Lawrence as the 2023 season approaches. The 29-year-old, whose last NFL regular-season start was in 2020 with the 49ers, appeared in four games last season and went 7-for-11 with 35 passing yards and an interception in that span.

    Beathard (groin) was cleared to practice Sunday according to head coach Doug Pederson, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Beathard was carted off the field during an early June minicamp practice, and has been out or limited since. The 28-year-old was considered the favorite to back up Trevor Lawrence, and he'll now work to regain any lost ground to Jake Luton and Kyle Sloter on those expectations, if any.

    Beathard (groin) will not play in the Hall of Fame Game against the Raiders on Thursday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Beathard is still recovering from a groin injury suffered in minicamp. The 28-year-old has been limited in practice and isn't quite ready to take the field yet. With Trevor Lawrence also getting the night off , Jake Luton will get the starting nod.

  • Still limited at camp

    Beathard (groin) was working on the side during training camp Sunday, John Oehser and J.P. Shadrick of the Jaguars' official site reports.

    Analysis: Beathard suffered the injury during practice in early June. The injury was severe enough for him to be carted off the field, but he was expected to be available for training camp. Although he is participating, it appears that he is still currently limited by the injury. Beathard is supposed to serve as Trevor Lawrence's backup, although the extra snaps with the offense for Jake Luton and Kyle Sloter could be a detriment to those expectations.

  • Likely to be fine for training camp

    Beathard (groin) is expected to be fine for training camp, Eugene Frenette of the Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Beathard was carted off the practice field with a groin injury Monday, but the issue isn't expected to be serious. Assuming he's ready to play by training camp, the 28-year-old is the frontrunner to serve as Trevor Lawrence's primary backup this year.

  • Expected to avoid surgery

    Beathard's recent groin injury isn't expected to require surgery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Beathard was carted off the practice field Monday after suffering the injury, but the quarterback appears to have avoided a significant issue. The 2017 third-round pick is the favorite to be Trevor Lawrence's primary backup in 2022, but his recent injury may give Jake Luton and EJ Perry an opportunity to compete for a larger role.

    Beathard was carted off the practice field Monday after injuring his groin during practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: An MRI is pending to determine the severity of the injury. Beathard is the favorite to be Trevor Lawrence's primary backup in 2022 after occupying that same position in 2021, but that's now up in the air until he gets his imaging results. Jake Luton, whom Jacksonville signed in February after he spent a season on Miami's practice squad, also is on hand for the Jaguars.

  • Gets hurt during practice

    Beathard was loaded onto a cart and brought to the locker room after apparently sustaining an injury at practice Monday, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear what exactly the injury is or when the Jaguars can reasonably expect Beathard to return, but it's a situation worth monitoring considering he was the primary backup to Trevor Lawrence in 2021 and the favorite to retain that position in 2022.

    Beathard was activated off of the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

    Analysis: The quarterback was placed on the COVID list Friday, which forced him to miss the Jaguars' season finale victory against the Colts. Beathard signed a two-year contract with the Jaguars in the offseason, appearing in two games as Trevor Lawrence's primary backup.

    The Jaguars placed Beathard (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Beathard will need to fully clear league protocols before returning to team facilities, which puts his status in doubt for Sunday's season finale against Indianapolis. If Beathard is unavailable Week 18, practice squad signal-caller Danny Etling will stand to bump to the active roster and operate as the top backup to Trevor Lawrence.

  • Entrenched as top backup

    Beathard completed five of 10 passes for 86 yards and an interception during Sunday's preseason win against Dallas.

    Analysis: It was a poor showing for Beathard on Sunday, but his role as Trevor Lawrence's top backup was already secured after Gardner Minshew was traded to the Eagles on Saturday. Overall Beathard played well between the three exhibition contests, completing 27 of 40 pass attempts for 309 yards with three touchdowns and one interception. The 27-year-old is a solid backup option at quarterback, though things will have obviously gone wrong for the Jaguars if he's seeing any significant playing time in…read more

  • Another strong showing

    Beathard completed nine of 14 pass attempts for 121 yards and two touchdowns during Monday's preseason game against the Saints.

    Analysis: Trevor Lawrence and Gardner Minshew continue to operate as Jacksonville's top two quarterbacks, but Beathard has played well in the No. 3 role. He completed 13 of 16 pass attempts for 102 yards and a touchdown during the preseason opener last week. The veteran signal-caller is doing his best so far in the preseason to show the Jaguars he's fit to be the top backup.

    The Jaguars activated Beathard from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Beathard missed less than a week of practice while progressing through the league's COVID-19 protocols. He can now resume working as Jacksonville's third quarterback behind Trevor Lawrence and Gardner Minshew.

    Beathard (undisclosed) was placed on the COVID-19 list Monday.

    Analysis: It's unclear whether Beathard tested positive for the virus or was deemed a close contact, but he'll be unavailable until he clears the COVID protocols regardless. Jake Luton should work as Jacksonville's No. 3 quarterback in the meantime.

  • Signs with Jags

    Beathard agreed Wednesday with the Jaguars on a two-year, $5 million contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Jacksonville now has Beathard, Gardner Minshew and Jake Luton on its roster, with another quarterback in Trevor Lawrence likely on tap in the 2021 NFL Draft. A Minshew trade could happen first, though the Jags aren't facing any real pressure from a cap/salary perspective. Beathard went 2-10 as a starter over his four years with the 49ers, completing 58.6 percent of his passes for yards per attempt, 18 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.

  • Starts two games in 2020

    Beathard appeared in six games (two starts) with the 49ers in 2020, completing 66 of 104 pass attempts for 787 yards, six touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also lost three fumbles and logged six carries for 28 yards.

    Analysis: Beathard played like an efficient game manager when called upon by the 49ers, and he led the team to a win over the Cardinals in Week 16 before closing out the year with a narrow 26-23 loss to the Seahawks in Week 17. Now set to become an unrestricted free agent, Beathard should have displayed enough competence during his San Francisco tenure to compete for a backup role elsewhere in the league.

  • Manages 49ers to victory

    Beathard completed 13 of 22 pass attempts for 182 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in a Week 16 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Beathard was content to check down for much of the game and targeted his tight ends and backs on 17 of his attempts. Even so, he passed for three touchdowns of 21, nine and one yard -- two of which went to Kyle Juszczyk. Beathard played relatively mistake-free -- his only turnover came on a lost fumble -- and he is likely to draw another start in Week 17 against the Seahawks.

  • Named starting QB

    Beathard was named the starting quarterback for Saturday's game against the Cardinals, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Nick Mullens will require season-ending elbow surgery, opening the door for Beathard to make his 11th career start and his first of the season. Beathard entered the game in Mullens' place during last week's loss to the Cowboys, and he completed five of seven passes for 100 yards and a touchdown, a stat line that's slightly skewed by a 49-yard hail mary in the fourth quarter. Over 17 career games, Beathard sports a 1-9 record with a 57.8 completion percentage and 6.9 yards per target. He'll take…read more

  • Climbs depth chart due to injury

    Beathard will be the backup to Nick Mullens for at least the next six weeks, as Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) will miss at least that long due to a high-ankle sprain, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Mullens will get first crack at filling in for Garoppolo, starting with Thursday's game against Green Bay. Beathard will wait in the wings should Mullens struggle, but considering Beathard has usurped Mullens as Garoppolo's backup as recently as earlier this season, the window is wide open for the Iowa product to get another shot under center if things start to go south for San Francisco's offense.

  • Likely reverting to backup role

    Beathard is expected to be the backup quarterback Sunday versus the Rams with Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) reclaiming starting duties, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Analysis: Garoppolo was benched during this past Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, as he performed poorly and the game quickly got out of hand. Beathard entered in his place and completed nine of 18 passes for 94 yards and a touchdown. Garoppolo is still dealing with an ankle injury, and that could've played a role in his disappointing outing, but coach Kyle Shanahan has no plans to bench him. Beathard has proven himself as the clear No. 2 quarterback ahead of Nick Mullens, so he'll be the next man up in…read more

  • Takes over as starter mid-game

    Beathard filled in for a struggling Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) in the second half of Sunday's 43-17 loss to Miami. He completed nine of 18 pass attempts for 94 yards and a touchdown.

    Analysis: Beathard has had to relieve a different struggling quarterback ahead of him on the depth chart for the second consecutive week. Unlike last week's late comeback attempt against the Eagles, the backup had a more pedestrian outing when given a full half to operate. Garoppolo clearly did not look right early on, and his injured ankle may have had a big part in why he performed so poorly. It would be a surprising turn of events if an official change was made with both players being healthy, so we…read more

  • Rises to second on depth chart

    Beathard will serve as the 49ers' backup quarterback in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) is slated to return from a two-game absence to reclaim starting duties Week 5, but Beathard showed enough in relief of a struggling Nick Mullens in the 49ers' Week 4 loss to the Eagles to move up a rung on the depth chart. Making his second straight start, Mullens committed three turnovers against Philadelphia before being pulled in the fourth quarter in favor of Beathard, who proceeded to complete 14 of 19 attempts for 138 yards. Now that he's dropped behind Garoppolo…read more

  • Takes over mid-game

    Beathard entered Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Eagles and completed 14 of 19 pass attempts for 138 yards.

    Analysis: Sunday's starter (and primary backup) Nick Mullens struggled with turnovers in the second half and was benched for Beathard late in the fourth quarter. The third-string quarterback orchestrated two no-huddle drives that concluded with a Hail-Mary heave that would have clinched the victory had it not fallen incomplete. Beathard entered the contest with a 57 completion percentage and a 12:13 TD:INT for his career, but those stats came back in 2017-2018 when the 49ers had a far inferior offensive…read more

  • Clear No. 3 option

    Beathard will be a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Jets, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Sunday will mark the second consecutive game for which Beathard will be inactive this season, signalling he's the clear third option on the depth chart. It's unlikely that the Iowa product will make an impact from a fantasy perspective, barring injuries, and Nick Mullens will continue to serve as the team's back up behind Jimmy Garoppolo.

  • Finishes third on depth chart

    Beathard did not see the field while serving as the 49ers' third-string quarterback in 2019.

    Analysis: San Francisco -- in unorthodox fashion -- decided to keep three quarterbacks on its 53-man roster after the team was unable to trade backups Nick Mullens and Beathard during the preseason. This move showed the confidence the coaching staff has in the 26-year-old's abilities as a signal caller. Beathard's 57.3 completion percentage and 12:13 TD:INT ratio came in less-than-ideal conditions, but he has shown to have accuracy on shorter pass attempts with some athleticism as a runner when called…read more
