Dexter McDonald (born November 30, 1991) is a former American football cornerback. He was selected by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round of the 2015 NFL draft. He played college football at University of Kansas.
On March 25, 2015, McDonald worked out at Kansas' pro day, where he wowed scouts by jumping higher than the measuring device could measure. After several adjustments and re-jumps, the scouts credited him with a 40.5 inch standing vertical jump. He then created more buzz by recording an 11'-2" broad jump.
McDonald was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round, 242nd overall, in the 2015 NFL draft.[1] On September 1, 2018, he was waived/injured by the Raiders and was placed on injured reserve.[2]
