Oregon State Beavers In The NFL
Right Tackle, 1st String – Taliese Fuaga – New Orleans Saints
Fuaga didn’t see action in New Orleans’ 44-13 loss to Seattle. He’s currently dealing with a knee injury, and it’s unclear when he’ll return. It’s not season-ending, just appears to be a nagging injury.
Punter – Johnny Hekker – Tennessee Titans
In Tennessee’s 41-20 loss to the Colts, Hekker was called on sparingly. He punted just one time for 52 yards.
Left Guard, 1st String – Isaac Seumalo – Pittsburgh Steelers
In Pittsburgh’s 21-14 win over New England, Seumalo started at left guard and played 52 snaps. He was the Steelers’ highest-graded PFF offensive player at 90.7.
Wide Receiver / 1st String KR/PR – Anthony Gould – Indianapolis Colts
In Indianapolis’ 41-20 win over the Titans, Gould took three kickoffs for 104 yards. He averaged 34.7 yards per return and had a long return of 39 yards. He also saw action on three offensive snaps, but wasn’t targeted by QB Daniel Jones.
Linebacker, 1st String – Omar Speights – Los Angeles Rams
In Los Angeles’ 33-26 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Speights started at linebacker, saw 52 snaps, and finished with four tackles.
Cornerback, 2nd String – Rejzohn Wright – New Orleans Saints
Wright saw action on two special teams plays in New Orleans’ 44-13 loss to the Seahawks.
Left Guard, 2nd String – Blake Brandel – Minnesota Vikings
Brandel saw his most reserve action of the season in Minnesota’s 48-10 blowout over Cincinnati, playing 26 snaps and also eight on special teams.
Cornerback, Nickelback 1st String – Alex Austin – New England Patriots
In New England’s 21-14 loss to Pittsburgh, Austin got the start at cornerback for the injured Christian Gonzalez, but struggled, playing just 14 snaps. He’s been picked on by opposing QBs this season, with 12 targets coming his way, allowing nine catches and a score.
Cornerback, 1st String – Nahshon Wright – Chicago Bears
In Chicago’s 31-14 win over the Dallas Cowboys, Wright started at cornerback and saw action on 74 snaps. He finished with the third-most tackles (nine) and has really carved out a niche with the Bears.
Wide Receiver, 2nd String – Brandin Cooks – New Orleans Saints
In New Orleans’ 44-13 loss to Seattle, Cooks played 51 snaps and caught three of his five targets for 24 yards.
Safety, 2nd String – Kitan Oladapo – Green Bay Packers
Oladapo saw action on six special teams plays in Green Bay’s 13-10 loss to the Browns.
Tight End, 2nd String – Luke Musgrave – Green Bay Packers
In Green Bay’s 13-10 loss to the Browns, Musgrave played 13 snaps, but was primarily used as a run-blocker with no targets coming his way.
Tight End, 3rd String – Teagan Quitoriano – Atlanta Falcons
In Atlanta’s 30-0 loss to Carolina, Quitoriano saw action on seven offensive snaps and 10 on special teams.
Practice Squads
DB Jordan Poyer – Buffalo Bills
After a stint with the Miami Dolphins, Poyer is back in Buffalo, this time on the practice squad. Considering his familiarity with Sean McDermott’s defense, should an injury in the DB room happen, Poyer could certainly be elevated.
OL Gerad Lichtenhan – Baltimore Ravens
Playing his lone season for Oregon State in 2024 and starting every game at left tackle, Lichtenhan has signed on with the Ravens’ practice squad.
OG Joshua Gray – Atlanta Falcons
Oregon State’s all-time starts leader, Gray, has signed with the Atlanta Falcons after a standout career with the Beavers.
DB Jaden Robinson – Denver Broncos
After tallying 38 tackles for Oregon State in his final collegiate season in 2024, Robinson has signed with the Broncos’ practice squad.
WR Isaiah Hodgins – Pittsburgh Steelers
The most recent Beaver addition to an NFL roster, Hodgins joined Pittsburgh’s practice squad last week. He’ll be a seasoned and big target for QB Aaron Rodgers should an injury occur and he be called up.
