Minnesota Vikings

[edit | edit source]

Prior to being drafted, Bond was victim of a hit and run when he was run over by a truck driving between 10 and 20 mph. The truck was dented in two spots, but Bond walked away without any obvious injuries; it was several weeks later when Bond was lifting weights that he felt discomfort in his wrist from the incident.[3][4] On April 27, 2013, he was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the seventh round, 214 overall pick of the 2013 NFL draft.[5] Bond was released by the Vikings on August 31, 2013 (along with 18 others) to get to a 53-man roster[6] and signed to the practice squad the next day.

Carolina Panthers

The Carolina Panthers signed Bond off the Vikings practice squad on November 13, 2013. He played in two games for the Panthers in 2013.[7] He was waived from Carolina on May 19, 2014.
