Tonight is the night we get our first view of former Philadelphia Eagles safety Quintin Demps, who was released from that team earlier this year along with safety/cornerback Victor "Macho" Harris. As an Eagles fan, I have to say I was surprised that Harris got the nod over Demps. It's hard to gauge #39 on his limited play, but he always seemed to have a better grasp of his assignments when out on the field, while Harris often looked confused.
For the Colonials, Demps replaces former CFL safety Ryan Glasper. I'll admit that I didn't think Glasper was doing all that poorly, but Demps is solid and provides a kick return threat that Hartford simply hasn't had all year. As a Colonials fan
and an Eagles fan, I'll be looking forward to seeing him in action tonight against the Tuskers.
