Beat ‘em like Beckham.

An alleged peeping Tom got an eyeful when he was caught pleasuring himself while looking into the bedroom of former NFL defensive Tony Beckham’s teenage daughter.

According to Beckham, he was leaving his South Florida home at 6:40 a.m. and spotted Geoffrey Cassidy peering through a window at his 15-year-old daughter. The retired cornerback, who played for the Detroit Lions, watched as the alleged perv tried getting into position to get a better look inside the home.

“I couldn’t believe it. I was like, ‘Is this for real?’ ” Beckham told ABC affiliate WPBF.

Beckham said he yelled at the man who tried running away, but the perv was no match for the speedy football star.

“I caught him at the apartment over there and we just had a good conversation,” he said.

Beckham held Cassidy down until police officers arrived. When cops booked Cassidy, he reportedly had multiple broken bones in his face.

“I’m sorry that it happened to me. I’m sorry that it happened to him,” Beckham said. “He’s never going to do that again on this side of town.”

Beckham’s wife Amanda called the incident “scary” and immediately bought darker blinds for their home.

“I don’t know if this is his first time coming here or if he’s been here before or where he’s seen us or how he picked us out,” she said.

Cassidy is being held on $1,500 bail for lewd and lascivious behavior with a minor.
