Video: White Men can’t jump? Nobody told Cole Beasley of the Dallas Cowboys

At five foot eight, wide receiver Cole Beasley is the shortest player at the Dallas Cowboys and he plays American football, not basketball for a living. But boy, he doesn’t half know how to dunk.

At five foot eight, wide receiver Cole Beasley is the shortest player at the Dallas Cowboys and he plays American football, not basketball for a living. But boy, he doesn’t half know how to dunk.

Sport is full of people who defy size and gravity to excel in their chosen code and you can add to that list Cole Beasley, a wide receiver with the Dallas Cowboys, even if in this example he’s using his gravity-defying skills to excel in the wrong sport.

Athletes being good at sports other than their own is nothing new, but you don’t expect fellas that are a full four inches short of six foot to be able to execute dunks like Beasley does in the compilation video above; needless to say if Spike Lee is ever thinking about a sequel to the brilliant White Men Can’t Jump, then he’s got himself the perfect man to play the Woody Harrelson character right here.
