CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Carson Beck is pushing his NFL plans back a year and has committed to play next season at Miami, a person with knowledge of the situation said Friday.
Beck, the now-former Georgia quarterback, has signed a grant-in-aid agreement with the Hurricanes, said the person, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because neither side had announced anything publicly.
The move means Beck — who is recovering from elbow surgery — is presumably taking over as Cam Ward’s replacement as Miami’s starter for the 2025 season. Beck originally declared for the NFL draft, then entered the transfer portal earlier this week and now will wind up at Miami.
Beck spent five seasons at Georgia, the last two as the Bulldogs’ primary starter.
Beck has completed 68% of his passes — 628 of 923 — for 7,912 yards, 58 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in his college career. He appeared in 39 games for Georgia, 27 of them in the last two seasons.
