Green Bay Packers fans have some of the best fans in the world. While passionate about their team, they quite often root for former players who have since moved on. That has especially been on full display over the last few seasons as the Packers have moved on from some notable names.
However, one former player who left the team under questionable conditions still got the support of many Packers fans.
One Former Green Bay Packers Player Gets Another Shot In The NFL

As reported by 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.

Many Packers fans took to social media to show their support when it was announced that Kevin King is getting another shot in the league:
don’t let the casuals distract you from the fact that kevin king was injured and put in bad positions by coaches during the nfccg that ended up painting the perception of his career

Reminder that we were all frustrated with Kevin King and Brandon Bostick in the moment, but if you’re still treating either one as the sole scapegoat in 2024, you’re a big time loser.
