TANNER BEASON NEWS

Energetic defensively Beason registered three tackles (one won), eight clearances and one interception in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

Impact Beason's high-octane work rate was on full display Saturday as he led the team with eight clearances and two blocks while also making an interception and three tackles (one won). Beason has only started two of San Jose's most recent five MLS matches. Over that span, he's made an astounding 19 clearances. The veteran defender has not logged a goal contribution through 23 appearances (14 starts) in 2024.

Own goal in loss Beason registered an own goal, one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus Minnesota United.

Impact In a failed attempt to block a shot from the wing, Beason directed the ball into his own net to put his side down by one in the 38th minute. On a positive note, he accounted for his first chance created in seven appearances and also registered his second shot in the last three outings.

Plays full game against Portland Timbers Beason registered one shot (one on goal) in Wednesday's 2-1 defeat versus Portland Timbers.

Impact Beason blocked three shots and also recorded a clearance and a tackle. In his last four appearances, he has accumulated 12 clearances, four tackles and two interceptions. Overall, he has featured in 14 games this season, with five of those appearances off the bench.

Falls into depth role Beason made 23 appearances (15 starts) in 2023, assisting once.

Impact Beason had a quiet year where poor form saw him left on the bench early in the year. Later on he saw more starts, though he was left sidelined for the final two matches of the regular season. Beason's status heading into 2024 is one to monitor as his role remains unclear.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set to return after suspension Beason has completed his one-game suspension and is eligible to return Wednesday against the Timbers.

Impact Beason was sent off late against DC United on Sep.9, but he's eligible to return here after missing the 2-1 win over Real Salt Lake this past weekend. Beason has started in each of his last 12 league appearances, so he has a strong shot at returning to the starting lineup right away.

Earthquakes earn draw vs. United despite Tanner Beason's ejection The San Jose Earthquakes survived the late ejection of Tanner Beason and considerable second-half pressure to earn a 0-0 draw at D.C.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • MIAMIHERALD.COM

Sent off late Beason was shown a straight red card during the second half of Saturday's clash with D.C. United.

Impact Beason saw the red card late on during Saturday's clash. The defender will be sidelined for a Sept. 16 clash with Real Salt Lake and could potentially face additional matches depending on the disciplinary board. Beason's likely replacement in central defense is Jonathan Mensah as they two have alternated starts in recent matches.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs five clearances versus Seattle Beason made five clearances, one interception and three blocks while helping his side to keep a clean sheet during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Seattle.

Impact Beason had another superb performance at the heart of the defense for San Jose, keeping opposing forwards at bay while racking up some good numbers overall. With 32 clearances, 10 tackles, 12 interceptions, 11 blocks and four clean sheets over the last eight starts, the center-back is currently the most reliable peace in San Jose's backline for fantasy purposes.

JULY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rare assist in draw Beason assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against FC Dallas.

Impact Beason made his ninth appearance and first start during Saturday's draw, and provided an assist. The center-back isn't a consistent option, going unused on the bench more often than not, and often seeing minimal playing time even when summoned. Beason is unlikely to be any sort of offensive option even when in the starting XI.

MAY 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Versatile starter for much of season Beason kept two clean sheets in 28 MLS appearances (25 starts), splitting time between central defense and left-back.

Impact Beason was a reliable starter for San Jose in 2022, but the 25-year-old will have some work to do in order to keep his spot in the XI for the next campaign ahead of new arrivals like Rodrigues and Miguel Trauco.

Fills stat sheet Beason had four tackles (four won), four clearances, and two interceptions in Thursday's 2-1 defeat to Colorado Rapids.

Impact Beason filled the stat sheet behind the ball despite making another start at left-back. Beason is a center-back naturally so he tends to offer next to nothing going forward even when shifted over to the left side of the backline. Beason has no goal contributions on the season but has managed career-highs in tackles (36), interceptions (42), and clearances (79).

SEPTEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Keeps clean sheet in draw Beason made 11 clearances and an interception in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Nashville SC.

Impact Beason was very strong in central defense Saturday as his side shut out Nashville and kept its second clean sheet of the season. He will want to do it again next weekend against Real Salt Lake, which have scored 18 goals in 15 MLS matches.

JUNE 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Shuts down Minnesota's offense Beason had two interceptions, seven tackles, two fouls and sustained one foul in the 1-0 loss to Minnesota United on Saturday.

Impact While his side couldn't make anything happen offensively, Beason was part of the effective defensive effort that stopped Minnesota United from scoring again. The defender has had a quiet season thus far, not playing in the last two matches. If this performance is indicative of his potential, then expect him to make a big splash in the next match against Austin.

JANUARY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in draw Beason took two shots (one on target) and made an interception in last weekend's 1-1 draw against FC Dallas.

Impact Beason ends 2021 with two clean sheets and an assist in 24 MLS appearances (22 starts), the most he's featured in a season yet. He is a versatile option in defense, able to play both at center back and left back, and the 24-year-old will head into next year ready to be a regular again, competing with Oswaldo Alanis for a starting spot next to Nathan.
