News: 1 day agoBeck (ribs) continued to be a limited participant at Monday's practice, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.

Spin: Beck fared well in the Hall of Fame Game against the Panthers, completing 15 of 19 passes for 188 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions. However, the rookie third-round pick came out of that contest with a rib injury that has capped his practice reps in the meantime and otherwise sidelined him for the Cardinals' next two exhibitions. Beck thus has one more chance for preseason action Friday at Green Bay before likely being relegated to the team's No. 3 QB role behind Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew to begin his career.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Beck was selected by the Cardinals in the third round of April's draft. Beck is a big, experienced quarterback who started for two seasons at Georgia prior to leading Miami to the national championship game last season. Beck paced this rookie QB class in completion percentage last season (72.4%) and for his career (69.5%), while also leading this group with an 80.9 QBR and 8.4 YPA during his 55-game collegiate career. He's unlikely to offer much with his legs in the pros, however, and will begin his career behind Jacoby Brissett and likely Gardner Minshew. Beck has no short-term fantasy value, though he could very well make some starts during his rookie season. Monitor him in superflex.
