Weight 250
DOB 1/28/2003
College Penn State
Drafted 6th Rd 2025 #201 Overall

Reverts to Jets' IR
LBNew York Jets
Undisclosed
June 3, 2026
King (undisclosed) reverted from waivers to the Jets' injured reserve list Tuesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
King wasn't claimed by another team after the Jets waived him Monday, so now he'll have to spend the entire 2026 campaign on IR unless he negotiates an injury settlement with the team. For now, his absence could free up more reps at linebacker for rookie undrafted free agents Jaden Keller and Chase Wilson.
