Top 10 NFL players under 6-feet tall

theScore's NFL Top 10 is a two-week series in which editors take a look at football's best, worst, and most interesting players, highlighting everything from the overpaid to the most versatile and marketable.

They say it ain't the size of the dog in the fight, but rather the size of the fight in the dog that determines one's success at the highest level.

None of these 10 dogs are the most physically imposing, but they have as much fight as anybody in their profession. Check out the top 10 NFL players under 6-feet tall:

10. Tre'Davious White, CB, Bills

Height: 5-foot-11

White may only have one season of NFL experience under his belt, but his dominance as a rookie certainly earned him a spot on this list. A perfect fit for Bills head coach Sean McDermott's zone defense, the 2017 first-round pick makes every catch for opposing wide receivers a nightmare to complete.

9. Chris Harris Jr., CB, Broncos

Height: 5-foot-10

Harris doesn't let his small stature get in the way of dominating in coverage. Denver's veteran defender has been the NFL's premier slot cornerback of this decade, combining lightning-quick feet, aggressiveness, and high football IQ to consistently remain one step ahead of opposing offenses.

8. T.Y. Hilton., WR, Colts

Height: 5-foot-10

Hilton doesn't always get mentioned among the brightest stars in the game but he's a legitimate No. 1 receiver and owns four 1,000-yard campaigns over six years to prove it. He's been productive, consistent, and durable throughout his career.

7. LeSean McCoy, RB, Bills

Height: 5-foot-11

McCoy hits plenty of home runs as a rusher, but he's also extremely reliable in the passing game as either a receiver or blocker. There aren't many three-down tailbacks still in the league, but McCoy - a former rushing champion - is one of them.

6. Tyreek Hill, WR, Chiefs

Height: 5-foot-10

Thanks to his lightning-fast speed, Hill is one of the most difficult players in the league to defend. The man known as "Cheetah" only has two seasons under his belt, but he's already established himself as one of the game's most dynamic playmakers.

5. Earl Thomas, FS, Seahawks

Height: 5-foot-10

When envisioning an ideal ball-hawking free safety, it's hard for anyone other than Thomas to come to mind. Even at 29 years old, Thomas remains one of the league's top defensive backs.

4. Casey Hayward, CB, Chargers

Height: 5-foot-11

Hayward is a rare do-it-all cornerback that doesn't get enough credit. Adept in man and zone coverage, the former second-round pick sticks to his receiver and makes plays on the ball. Hayward notched a league-leading seven interceptions in 2017, adding four more last season.

3. Odell Beckham Jr., WR, Giants

Height: 5-foot-11

Who has made more sensational plays than Beckham over the last four seasons? The 25-year-old posted 200 career receptions and 4,000 career receiving yards more quickly than anyone in NFL history, putting him on a Hall of Fame pace.

2. Russell Wilson, QB, Seahawks

Height: 5-foot-11

In a league where size matters, Wilson is the ultimate underdog. The Seahawks signal-caller has overcome his 5-foot-11 frame - which resulted in him being removed from a number of teams' draft boards in 2012 - en route to a Super Bowl championship.

1. Antonio Brown, WR, Steelers

Height: 5-foot-10

The precision with which he runs his routes is unparalleled in the game today, and allows Brown to separate from defenders consistently despite his modest frame. With an average of 1,570 yards per season over the last five years, Brown is widely considered the best receiver in football.
