Big stage doesn't faze Kevin King
Rookie cornerback's confidence comes from his preparation
GREEN BAY – Kevin King envisioned this moment in his mind. He replayed it over and over in the days leading up to the Packers traveling to face the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
It wasn’t a given the rookie second-round pick out of Washington would even play at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, but King was going to be ready if called upon.
Even if that meant lining up across from four-time Pro Bowl receiver Julio Jones.
“He’s not scared of anyone,” cornerback Davon House said. “I remember a few times he was like, ‘Put me on Julio. Put me on Julio.’ At cornerback, if you have that in you, everything else is going to take care of itself.”
