The Philadelphia Eagles signed safety Quintin Demps on a four-year contract.
Demps, a fourth round draft choice of the Eagles in the 2008 NFL Draft, was one of the top playmaking defensive backs in college football during his career at UTEP. His 17 career interceptions were the most among all players in the 2008 draft class and rank second in both Conference USA and school history.
Demps became the first player in school and conference history to have two 100-yd. INT returns in both a season and a career (at Central Florida and at New Mexico State in 2007). He also holds the school record with 404 INT return yards, becoming only the seventh player in NCAA history to top the 400-yard mark in that category.
In 2007, Demps earned third team All-America and All-Conference USA honors as he set school and league records by posting 220 return yards on five interceptions, including two touchdowns.
