The Falcons continued to bolster their secondary and special teams depth heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, re-signing defensive back Kevin King.

The Atlanta Falcons have continued to build up their secondary depth heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, announcing the re-signing of defensive back Kevin King on Friday afternoon. King, now heading into his age 30 season, spent the entirety of the 2024 season with the Falcons.

OFFICIAL: The Falcons re-signed cornerback Kevin King, who played in 15 games for them last season.

A former second-round pick of the Green Bay Packers (33rd overall) back in 2017, King never quite lived up to his draft hype. He did have a plus season in 2019, starting 14 games and piling up five interceptions and 15 PDs, but injuries would start to chip away at his career. King sat out the 2022 season and wound up missing the 2023 season due to a torn Achilles.

Jerry Gray, who coached King in Green Bay, brought him into training camp in Atlanta prior to last season. King caught on and wound up playing a versatile depth role for the Falcons, appearing in 15 games and starting one. He played a mixture of cornerback and safety, along with some special teams work. King was a solid addition but played only 71 snaps on defense.

The Falcons seem to have been encouraged by what they saw, bringing back King to compete for a depth role once again in 2025. What do you think about the Return of the (Kevin) King?
