Ex-Arizona RB Ka'Deem Carey 'ready for bigger fish in the ocean' after experience with Chicago Bears

Even though Ka'Deem Carey's NFL career hasn't panned out quite the way he thought it would, he insists nothing that's happened in his four years as a professional has surprised him.

(Note: I wrote a story about Carey's historic 2012 performance against Colorado here.)

Arguably the greatest running back to ever come out of Southern Arizona, the Canyon del Oro product became an All-American at Arizona and the school's all-time leading rusher, which helped him to be selected in the fourth round (117th overall) by the Chicago Bears.

Carey entered the fray in Chicago with a Pro Bowler already ahead of him in Matt Forte, and after a bad 2014 season, both the coach (Marc Trestman) and general manager (Phil Emery) who drafted him were fired.
