In 2019, Bonds was undrafted and signed with the Baltimore Ravens, the Bombers said. He spent that season on the practice roster (PR), but played four games with the team in 2020. In those games, he made six tackles before being put back on the PR.
Bonds played with the Pittsburgh Maulers in the United States Football League for the 2022 season, the Bombers said.
He also played four seasons with the Tennessee State Tigers; he made 95 tackles, ten interceptions, two touchdowns, 28 pass breakups and two forced fumbles in 39 games.
