I would just fold here especially with a field caller. Yes we are getting a good price, but what are we even hoping to hit with T5o? Even when we flop a pair, more often than not someone else will still have us beat, and the hand is neither suited or connected. With a stack this short it also has a lot of value to preserve as much fold equity as possible.

Fold, that's a problem, if you consider to play with cards like this under 50BB from BB...
