Progression of Kevin King’s career makes next contract a tough decision

The 2020 NFL season marks the final guaranteed year of Kevin King’s tenure with the Green Bay Packers, as his rookie contract hits its final year. Coming into a season that also will see the likes of Kenny Clark, Aaron Jones, David Bakhtiari, Corey Linsley, and Jamaal Williams, among others, playing in the final years of their current deals with the team, King may be pushed down the list of resigning importance, which could potentially have ramifications that see him leaving town.

When the Packers used the first selection of the second round on him (after trading back with the Cleveland Browns), King’s career as a Washington Huskie was very intriguing, especially for a team that was lacking a solid corner that could operate in space.
