Oregon State Beavers In The NFL: Week 8 Recap

-> In Dallas' 43-20 win over Los Angeles, Cooks had his best game of the season as he hauled in three of his four targets for 49 yards and a score. That's back-to-back weeks with a score for Cooks as he's developing chemistry with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys offense...

WR Isaiah Hodgins (2017-19) - New York Giants - First String

-> In New York's 13-10 loss to the Jets, Hodgins wasn't targeted in the passing game. He saw action on 48 snaps, so it wasn't a lack of playing time, but rather an indication of the G-Men's passing struggles. Daniel Jones remains injured, Tyrod Taylor was hurt, and Tommy DeVito was the finishing QB... Shockingly enough, the Giants finished with -9 passing yards, so bad vibes for the Giants right now...

TE Luke Musgrave (2019-22) - Green Bay Packers - First String

-> In Green Bay's 24-10 loss to Minnesota, Musgrave hauled in two of his three targets for nine yards. Musgrave is still looking for his first score of his rookie campaign but sees a ton of snaps each week (49 this past week) and it should be a matter of time with how involved he is in the offense. He has 24 receptions for 198 yards...

TE Teagan Quitoriano (2018-21) - Houston Texans - Second String

-> In Houston's 15-13 loss to Carolina, Quitoriano played 20 snaps, but wasn't targeted in the passing game.

OL Blake Brandel (2015-19)- Minnesota Vikings - Second String

-> In Minnesota's 24-10 win over Green Bay, Brandel saw his typical special teams work, playing six snaps on the field goal unit...

OL Issac Seumalo (2011-15)- Pittsburgh Steelers - First String

-> In Pittsburgh's 20-10 loss to Jacksonville, Seumalo started at left guard and played 67 snaps...

OL Sean Harlow (2013-16) - New York Giants - Second String

-> In New York's 13-10 loss to the Jets, Harlow played four snaps on the field goal unit.

S Jordan Poyer (2009-12) - Buffalo Bills - First String

-> In Buffalo's 24-18 win over Tampa Bay, Poyer put together arguably his best game of the season. He played 67 snaps, tallied a team-high defensive grade (89.4, next closest was 75.5), and finished tied for the team-high in tackles with eight. He also had two pass break ups and nearly an interception that could have been a pick-six...

Practice Squad

QB Sean Mannion (2010-2014) - Minnesota Vikings

-> Following a season-ending injury to Kirk Cousins, Mannion finds himself in an intriguing position. While he's not going to be the first option, Mannion is the veteran of the group and if the youngsters struggle in Cousins' stead, we could see Mannion elevated and get an opportunity to play in a meaningful game...

QB Jake Luton (2017-19) - Carolina Panthers

-> Luton was signed to the Panthers' practice squad in the wake of an ankle injury to Bryce Young. Luton would likely be a depth piece as the Panthers have Andy Dalton as the backup, but Jake is back in the show...

WR Tre'Shaun Harrison (2020-22) - Tennessee Titans

DB Jaydon Grant (2016-22)- Las Vegas Raiders

DB Alex Austin (2019-22) - Houston Texans

-> After being cut by the Texans, Austin cleared waivers and re-signed to Houston's practice squad...

WR Tyjon Lindsey (2019-22) - Seattle Seahawks

FB Jack Colletto (2018-22) - Pittsburgh Steelers

-> After being released by San Francisco, Colletto was quickly signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers...

Jermar Jefferson (2018-20) - Detroit Lions

-> After being waived by the Lions with an injury settlement before the season began, Jefferson is back with the Lions and healthy, joining the practice squad...
