Frederick Jerome Beasley (born September 18, 1974 in Montgomery, Alabama) is an American football player in the National Football League. He was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the 6th round (180th overall) in 1998 NFL Draft. He now is a free agent.

High school years

Beasley attended Robert Edward Lee High School in Montgomery, Alabama and was a letterwinner in football and track. In football, he was a two-time All-State honoree, won back-to-back state championships and as a senior, he was a "USA Today" All-USA selection and named an All-American by "Parade". In track, he was a three-time State Champion on the decathlon.

College career

Beasley attended Auburn University, and was a star in football. He split time between fullback and tailback and finished his career with 1,241 rushing yards, 567 receiving yards, and 16 rushing touchdowns.

Professional career

Beasley was selected by the San Francisco 49ers in the 1998 NFL Draft, and spent the next eight seasons with the franchise. At one time, Beasley was widely regarded as the best blocking fullback in the NFL. In 2002 and 2003, he was selected all-pro as a fullback. In 2003, he was named the NFC Pro Bowl team's starting fullback. Following his release from San Francisco following the 2005 season, he signed with the Miami Dolphins but was released early in the season. According to press reports, the Minnesota Vikings had Beasley try out November 21, 2006, looking at him as a replacement for injured fullback Tony Richardson [http://www.startribune.com/510/story/827995.html] (who is also a former Auburn Tiger). Amid salary cap concerns (due to veteran league minimums), the team opted to sign rookie Naufahu Tahi instead.

He signed with the Washington Redskins to a one year contract. He was released on September 1, 2007.
