KC Eziomume's road to the NFL wound through three different college programs before he landed at Tulane, where his size and physicality in press coverage caught scouts' attention. The Georgia native signed with the Bears as an undrafted free agent and will look to work with cornerbacks coach Al Harris to earn a roster spot in training camp.
