The former cornerback for the Chicago Bears has gone on to be an FBI agent. It was in September 2018 that they reported he enrolled at the Training Academy located in Quantico, Virginia. Honestly, it makes a lot of sense for an NFL player to become an agent. Apparently, the two-time Pro Bowler player was interested in joining the FBI even before his playing days. He would often observe and work together with law enforcement during the offseason. He earned his degree in criminal justice from Louisiana – Lafayette. Interestingly, his father was also an army sergeant.
