Former Mizzou DB DeMarkus Acy went undrafted in the 2020 NFL Draft, but quickly found a home as an undrafted free agent.
He signed with the San Francisco 49ers, but didn’t make the roster for the 2020 season. Now, though, he’s found a new home.
According to his agency, Acy has signed with the Seattle Seahawks as a member of their practice squad:

Acy recorded 99 tackles over his 4-year career at Mizzou. He also had 3 interceptions, 20 pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.
Will we see him make an impact for the Seahawks this season? With the COVID-19 procedures in effect this year, everyone on the roster and practice squad will need to be ready to play at a moment’s notice.
