Packers' Kevin King: Tallies double-digit tackles
Rotowire
King made a career-high 10 tackles (seven solo) and deflected two passes in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
King had numerous opportunities to make plays Sunday with the Bears avoiding fellow corner Jaire Alexander, and although King had a mishap or two, he did not allow a reception longer than 23 yards and recorded double-digit tackles for the first time as a pro. King should benefit from the Packers' first-round bye, as although he played in every game in December, he was limited in practice by a couple nagging leg injuries.

Packers' Kevin King: Managing practice reps
Rotowire
King was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice due to an Achilles injury.
King logged a trio of limited practices before suiting up in last week's win against the Bears, so it's too early to panic about his Week 13 availability. The Washington product logged 97 percent of defensive snaps in last week's win, recording four tackles (three solo) and three pass breakups. If King were to suffer a setback, Chandon Sullivan would be in line for the start at cornerback opposite Jaire Alexander.

Rotowire
King (Achilles) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts.
King was expected to return to the lineup after sitting out five games with a quadriceps injury, but his status is in question once again because of an Achilles injury. The fourth-year cornerback out of Washington is still traveling with the team, and the final verdict will be revealed with the inactive list about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. Josh Jackson likely will start at outside cornerback if King can't go.

Packers' Kevin King: Gets it done in Year 3
Rotowire
King played in 15 regular-season games in 2019 and tallied 66 tackles (56 solo), five interceptions, a sack, and 15 pass deflections.
King showed promise in his first two seasons after being taken in the second round in 2017, but due to injuries he appeared in just 15 of a possible 32 games. He stayed healthy in 2019, and when it was all said and done he set career highs nearly across the board and picked off as many or more passes than all but three players in the league. King will be entering the final season of his rookie contract in 2020, so he will have more incentive than ever to stay healthy and productive.
