For those interested in what happens to a familiar face, the Chicago Bears have officially released former Kansas City Chiefs safety Quintin Demps just one year after signing him to a three-year contract in free agency.
Last spring, the Bears actually signed two former Chiefs players in an attempt to bolster the secondary with defensive players on the open market. They signed Demps and Marcus Cooper to be two of four starters in the team’s base pass defense, but both players struggled to stay on the field. For Demps, it was an unfortunate broken forearm in Week 3 that led the Bears to place him on injured reserve, ending his regular season after just a couple games.
