Penn State TE Mike Gesicki can throw down some thunderous dunks (Video)

With multiple acrobatic catches in 2016, Penn State tight end Mike Gesicki proved that he is one heck of an athlete.

Gesicki was at it again this week, but this time he was doing it on the basketball court with a variety of highlight reel dunks. Watch this:

Yeah, that’s a 6-foot-6, 250-pound tight end with that kind of leaping ability. That’s pretty impressive.

Gesicki, who caught 48 passes for 679 yards and five touchdowns as a junior, is no stranger to the basketball court. He was a star on the hardwood and a standout volleyball player coming out of Southern Regional High School in South Jersey as well.

These highlights certainly show that:

Gesicki passed on the NFL in order to return to Penn State for his senior season, so we’ll get the chance to see that athleticism on display for one more year at the college level before he’s doing it on Sundays.
