Timeline

1984

Demetress Carte Bell (born May 3, 1984), formerly known as Demetrius Bell, is a former American football offensive tackle.

1996

Laboratory blood tests prepared for the Bell family's 1996 paternity lawsuit against Karl Malone reportedly pointed to an over 99 percent probability that Bell's father was either Malone or a twin brother of Malone.

Malone initially refused to respond to the lawsuit, but eventually reached an out-of-court settlement with the Bell family over the issue.

The Bells received a single lump sum payment of a confidential amount, with no on-going child support for Demetress.

In speaking later about the settlement, Malone's attorney asserted that it had not included an official court determination of paternity, and noted that Malone "had a lot of brothers".

Although Malone was 20 years old at the time that the then-12-year-old Gloria Bell was impregnated, she said that her family chose not to pursue criminal charges against Malone over the relationship.

According to Bell, with Malone being a neighbor — Summerfield's population is only a few hundred — her family did not wish to see him jailed, especially since he would then be unable to provide any support for Demetress at all.

1998

However, in a 1998 article in The Salt Lake Tribune, when Bell was 14 years old, his mother spoke of his shying away from anything to do with Malone because his feelings were hurt by Malone's refusal to acknowledge him.

According to Bell, he has spoken to Malone on one occasion, when Bell was 18 years old.

2003

Eventually, during high school, he took up basketball and played well enough to receive a scholarship to Northwestern State University, where he played in 88 games over the course of the 2003–04, 2004–05, and 2006–07 seasons.

2005

In the fall of 2005, he red-shirted the basketball season and began playing for the school's football team.

He was initially placed in the position of defensive end.

The following year, injuries struck the team's offensive line, and he was moved to the left tackle position.

He earned second-team All-Louisiana honors that season.

2006

After the 2006–07 season, he decided to give up basketball to concentrate on his development in football.

Bell's high school had not fielded a football team, so prior to his attending Northwestern State, he had never played organized football.

2007

Bell was one of only four NCAA athletes to play both basketball and football in Division I in 2007.

Bell made a bigger name for himself in his senior season of 2007, having focused solely on football.

Remaining on the offensive line, he was named an All-Louisiana and an All-Southland Conference first-teamer.

2008

After playing college football for Northwestern State, he was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL Draft.

He played for the Bills for four seasons and one season in Philadelphia.

He is notable for making the NFL and playing for half a decade without ever having played a down of high school football, or having gone to college with the intention of playing football.

He is the son of former basketball player Karl Malone.

Bell graduated from Northwestern State in 2008.

Bell was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL Draft.

The Bills were encouraged by his raw skills, but saw him as a longer-term project, given his inexperience in having played organized football for only three seasons at that point.

However, the team chose to place him on their active roster, rather than assigning him to their practice squad, where he could potentially have been signed away by another team.

Consistent with their view of him as a work in progress, Bell was not activated for play in any of the Bills' regular season games in 2008.

In 2008, The Buffalo News published a story about Bell that included the claim that he did not know who his father was until after he graduated from high school.

2009

In 2009, citing the quality of Bell's performance in the Bills' off-season and pre-season training camps that year, then-Bills head coach Dick Jauron installed Bell as the team's starting left tackle for the 2009 regular season.

After earning mixed reviews over the first half of the campaign, including an extremely high number of penalties against him, Bell's year came to a disappointing conclusion when he suffered what would prove to be a season-ending knee injury in a Week 10 game against the Tennessee Titans.

2012

Bell, who spelled his first name "Demetrius" until 2012 when he discovered it was actually spelled "Demetress", was born in 1984 to 13-year-old Gloria Bell of Summerfield, Louisiana, and Karl Malone, then a 20-year-old college basketball player and future National Basketball Association (NBA) star, and a fellow native of Summerfield.

On April 4, 2012, the Philadelphia Eagles signed Bell to a contract that could be worth up to $34.5 million over five years.

2013

The first year of this contract was worth $3.25 million and while he played in nine games including five starts, he suffered a few injuries and the Eagles would have been obligated to pay him more than eight million dollars if he was included on the roster in 2013.

As such on February 6, 2013, Bell was released from his contract.

On July 21, 2013, Bell was signed by the Dallas Cowboys.

He was released by the Cowboys on August 31, 2013.

2014

Malone and Demetress Bell had previously spoken on only one occasion prior to repairing their relationship in 2014.

As a young teenager, Bell played more softball than he did Malone's sport of basketball.

He did not play organized football at all during that time.
