Isaiah Demetryst Frey[1] (born April 6, 1990) is an American former professional football safety. He was selected by the Chicago Bears in the sixth round of the 2012 NFL draft. He played college football for Nevada.

He also played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and spent time on the practice squads for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys.

Early life

Frey was born on April 6, 1990, in Roseville, California. Frey's father, Demetryst Cornish, is a Walter Payton fan, and therefore named Frey's dogs "Bear" and "Payton." Frey and linebacker Lance Briggs were also from the same area.

"The only person I have an idea about is Lance Briggs just because we’re from the same area. He was a stud back in Sacramento and everybody knows about him. I’ve never met him; I’ve just heard stories about him."

— Frey about Lance Briggs[2]

College career

Frey played in college as a cornerback for the Nevada Wolf Pack.[1] During his time at Nevada, he recorded 141 tackles, seven interceptions, seven tackles-for-loss, one sack and two forced fumbles in 51 games. During his year as a senior, Frey was named first-team all-WAC after tying for first in the FBS with 21 pass breakups and recording a career-high five interceptions.

Professional career

Chicago Bears

Though Frey was projected to be an undrafted free agent,[3] he was picked in the 6th round, 184th overall by the Chicago Bears in the 2012 NFL draft.[4]

"Frey gives the Bears an athletic corner with athleticism and quickness. He is ideally suited to play in a two-deep scheme and will have a chance to make the roster as a sub defender."

— NFL.com analyst Bucky Brooks[5]

On May 9, 2012, the Bears signed Frey to a four-year deal.[6][7]

In the third game of the preseason against the New York Giants, Frey intercepted a David Carr pass in the end zone with 1:06 in the game to give the Bears a 20–17 victory.[8] However, he was waived on August 31.[9] He later was placed on the Bears' practice squad.[10]

The Bears waived Frey on August 26, 2014.[11] On September 1, 2014, he was re-signed to the practice squad.[12][13] He was again released by the Bears on October 7, 2014, and replaced on the team's roster by practice squad member Al Louis-Jean.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Frey signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on October 14, 2014.[14] He was released on September 5, 2015.

Pittsburgh Steelers

On October 27, 2015, Frey was signed to the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad.[15]

Dallas Cowboys

On June 13, 2016, Frey was signed by the Dallas Cowboys.[16] On September 3, 2016, he was released by the Cowboys.[17]
