Penn State cornerback Kalen King said it was 'nothing but a humbling experience' to be drafted in the seventh round by the Green Bay Packers.
Penn State cornerback Kalen King did a 6-minute conference call with the Green Bay Packers media Saturay night after being selected in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft. A few times, he fought through tears describing the three days he spent waiting.
King has called himself a"game-speed guy," the type of player for whom a 4.62 40-yard dash means little. But he'll have some convincing to do in Green Bay, even though general manager coach Brian Gutekunst liked King's fire. King said the draft represented where he was"slotted" and not the"player that I am." He studied the Packers' cornerbacks room and knows"exactly what I'm walking into." His career, King said, starts now.
