Green Bay Packers fans are as reliable as they come when it comes to reactions on social media. That is certainly true when it comes to former players returning signing with a new team. That can be doubled down when that player returned to the league at the same time.
Former Green Bay Packers Second-Round Pick Returns To The NFL
Syndication Journal Sentinel
According to the Atlanta Falcons’ official website:
The Atlanta Falcons signed cornerback Kevin King, the team announced Monday. This transaction marks King’s return to the NFL after two consecutive years away.
King comes to Atlanta with five active seasons on his professional resume from 2017-21. The Green Bay Packers originally drafted King out of Washington with a second-round pick. After four years on a rookie contract, King and the Packers agreed to terms on a one-year deal in 2021.
In 2022, King chose to sit out the season for personal reasons. He then missed 2023 due to a torn Achilles tendon sustained during an offseason workout, trying to get into shape for a training camp. King himself explained all that happened in a 21-minute YouTube video shared on May 5, 2023.
