Colt is frequently the butt of jokes from his father and brother, particularly when it comes to his ranching skills ( or lack thereof ) and his disappointing pro football career. He is a heavy drinker and has a penchant for not using common sense, but he seems to have a heart of gold and tries to do right by others. Based on his various T - shirts and dialogue throughout the first season, it 's implied that Colt has played for the Barcelona Dragons, San Jose SaberCats, Spokane Shock, Orlando Predators, Nebraska Danger, Iowa Barnstormers, Minnesota Axemen and Philadelphia Soul.

Danny Masterson as Jameson `` Rooster '' Bennett, Colt 's older brother. He has lived and worked on the ranch since Colt left to follow his football career, at times showing a bitter attitude for the burden of responsibility this caused him.
