Former Packers CB Kevin King suffered ruptured Achilles while prepping for NFL comeback

Former Green Bay Packers cornerback Kevin King suffered a ruptured Achilles while prepping for an NFL comeback.

In a recent video, King told the story of his decision to step away from football during the 2022 season to get mentally and physically healthy. The 28-year-old felt ready to resume his NFL career ahead of the 2023 season and had initial interest from teams when he suffered the significant injury.

King needed surgery, which was performed by Dr. Robert Anderson in Green Bay about a month ago.
