If Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley does not see his NFL career pan out, he may have a future in the NBA with the way he can throw it down despite only measuring in at 5’8″.

Beasley is working hard to make the Cowboys roster this offseason, but it appears he took some time off to show everyone he can dunk better than most in the NBA. Here’s the NFL’s version of Nate Robinson:

Quite impressive, even for a professional athlete. It’s a trait that could allow him to make the Cowboys roster this year, but a safer bet is his quality route running and hands that help him win that battle. Staying healthy would help as well. Still, not a bad way to catch defenders by surprise.

Beasley is set to do battle with Anthony Armstrong in an effort to make the final roster in Dallas, with a wealth of talent behind him looking to take his spot as well. One thing’s for sure—they may not be able to jump over him.
