Cole Beasley Retiring

[glimmerman]

Does he get to keep the 440,000 the bucs gave him.

 

[john van brocklin]

Good for him.

Made some good money playing as a slot guy. 10+ years in the league.

Retire and enjoy time with your family.

Wish former Cowboys the best.
Enjoy your family and the fruits of your labor.

Since he signed after week 1, he gets to keep the game checks/weeks he was on the practice squad.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Now he can focus on his rap career

I was at his last regular season game for the Cowboys and his last catch to win the game will forever be a memory of mine.

 

[Tussinman]

Only reason he signed with the Bucs was chasing a championship. After a couple weeks he realized they aren’t winning anything this season.

Bucs signed him because Evans was suspended and Godwin/Jones where both injured.

Now that all 3 are back he won't play much if at all (he's like 5th or 6th on the WR depth chart)

He was signed to Tampa’s practice squad and wasn’t used much in their first two games. He was only given an opportunity because of injuries to their receiving corp. He was probably going to be demoted anyway so he probably said the hell with it.

Yeah he was most likely going back to the practice squad

Beasley was my pet cat his rookie year. Loved his tape better than the guy they drafted 4th or 5th Round that year, Danny Coale. Coale got hurt and Cole stepped it up and got it done besides the "I'm gonna quit" drama. When Romo mentioned him in preseason game interview, I knew he made the team because he gained Romo's trust.

You can argue about his off the field stuff but pretty good career for a guy who went undrafted and almost walked away from the game in his first camp. Looks like he earned almost 40 million in salary over his career. Not bad.

Jealous
Great catch
Great finish

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Started his career as a quitter and ending it as one to.

 

[Toro9]

That's what he tried to do in his first training camp

 

[FanofJerry]

Beas looked at the twitter induced calluses on his wifes thumbs and called it

 

[Silverz1972]

He still get a ring if bucs win super bowl.

 

[rags747]

$50+m in his career and over 500 catches. Not too shabby for a little guy. Also had great instinct with all of the bull that the league was pushing on him. Good job Beese!

 

[ItzKelz]

Learned from Tom's mistake

 

[Praxit]

...I get the feeling Tampa wasn't right fit for him. Of course, he wont come out and say that.

He's too old now and was lucky Tampa picked him up.

I agree with Ranch, that Cole burnt bridges with Dallas going AWOL after signing.

Good luck to him.

 

[calico]

He had a nice career for a guy with his size and skill set.

he needs to thank who ever it was who convinced him not to quit his first training camp cause he’s set for life now.

 

[WTtoolman]

One of the greatest catches in Cowboys'/NFL history!! Absolutely amazing!!

 

[darthseinfeld]

Sick burn!

He’s a total joke only being able to play 11 seasons n a sport where the average career is ~3-4 years.

I shook my head at how he left Dallas and did the same with how he left Buffalo. However he had a very good for anyone, even more so considering he was an undersized UDFA.

Not for nothing, but his drama may get him some interest post career if he wants to do a pod cast or something like that

 

[Proof]

Only reason he signed with the Bucs was chasing a championship. After a couple weeks he realized they aren’t winning anything this season.

only reason he signed with the bucs was because they were the only team to come calling after they lost practically every wr they had. after a couple of weeks everyone returned and he wasn't needed after his sterling 4 receptions for 17 yards.
