According to the USA Today’s Connor Hughes, the Indianapolis Colts expressed significant interest in “running back” Terron Beckham, as the team put him through additional position drills and met with him after his impressive pro day performance on Thursday:

Of course, Beckham is most known for being the ridiculously jacked cousin of New York Giants superstar wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr.:

The 23 year old last played football in high school, but is trying to join his cousin on the NFL field after a stint as a personal trainer and fitness model.

The 5’11”, 230 pound “running back” wowed at his earlier mock pro day, boasting 44 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press and a vertical jump of 45-inches.

He failed to disappoint during his real pro day on Thursday at TEST Sports Clubs, as he performed 36 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press, recorded a 44.5 inch vertical jump, and ran a 4.47 forty time.

From purely an athletic standpoint, Terron Beckham is a freak of nature just like his cousin. However, whether that will actually translate to the field is another story entirely.

That being said, he makes for a very intriguing football prospect even from purely a physical standpoint. There’s one thing you can’t teach and that’s athleticism–which Beckham appears to possess an abundance of to say the least.
