Biography
Following his career at Georgia Tech, Bostic went undrafted in the 1999 NFL draft. Bostic was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles to a contract but failed to make the team out of training camp. Signed to the Eagles practice squad, Bostic was promoted to the active roster late in the season due to several injuries to the starting defensive backs on the Eagles roster, and played in his first career game on January 3, 2000 against the St. Louis Rams, where he recorded three tackles in the 38-31 win.[1][2]
After Allen Rossum was traded to the Green Bay Packers, Bostic made the active roster out of training camp in the 2000 season, ultimately playing in all sixteen regular season games.[3][4]
