"I can't tell you what the other teams didn't see in me but I can tell you that Green Bay saw something and I'm grateful to be here"
What a killer answer.
Dawg🧀
That was from the heart!! He rode that rollercoaster of possibly not getting drafted. I'm so rooting for Kalen to get on Jaire's hip, and learn how to master the position. 💚💛
Your here now buddy. Do it
I liked that too. I mean, anybody can talk the talk, but he sounds he put some serious thought into his situation on his drive up to Green Bay. That hardly guarantees success, but I'll put my money on him before a player that's just thinking about dollar signs.
Really rooting for him. Prove the doubters wrong Kalen!
Packers always manage to draft young men with a solid attitude who come ready to compete. Looking forward to this season
They look for captains as a added plus and it holds value.
It’s a priority…and it pays back in being coachable
Bro I think they picked up something like 6 captain
I am super excited about Mr King. He could be the steal of the draft!! Definitely praying and rooting for him. Let's fkn go!!
Charles Woodson is my favorite all-time CB as well. He's an exceptional role model for this young man. Charles is not just one of the best to ever play the position, he's a great man. The epitome of class.
For a 22 year-old to have that much humility and express that much vulnerability about the draft is refreshing and inspiring. I certainly wish the best for him in his career.
Take the feeling Kalen and prove the other teams wrong. Doesn't matter when u were drafted. You made it thru the draft, now follow your dream. We are all pulling for you! Green and Yellow!!!
Shout out to bro 💛💚💛💚
Woodson got his ring here. Now let’s go get yours!
Kalen I’m a big Penn St fan ❤ even a bigger Packer fan , since 1965 when I was 5 and Bart Starr was QB , I will be rooting for ya ❤
So cool that Charles Woodson is his all time favorite CB
This kids going to prove all the doubters wrong!
Love rhe kid already. He got that drive to ve great
He will be a dawg all right!
Hoping this kid makes every other team in the league wonder why they passed on him multiple times. LFG Pack.
Welcome to Green Bay Mr. King! Make GreenBay great again!
Im lowkey super excited to see how he does. He was a dog at Penn St 2 years ago and just had some issues last year. I think he could be a huge steal if we develop him properly
I'm excited for this young man. Glad we have a great scouting staff!
The Will to Win!!! Just work hard and Win. Everything else will take care of itself.
Welcome, Kalen King!! Make it count!!💚💛
I loved the way his face lit up when they mentioned Clifford lol.
I'm pulling for you, stay hungry and let's get a Lombardi GoPackGo
Let’s gooooo 💙🤍💛💚
High character guy. Happy for him to have an opportunity for the packers.
I’m rooting for Kalen King to the fullest! He’s in a great room to learn from and Hafley is a great coach when it comes to the secondary. Can’t wait to see him on the field and I have a feeling we’ll be hearing his name a lot during training! Chip on his shoulder mentality 🧀🧀
Man we are supporting this guy to the fullest !!!
Definitely a dawg. I feel like he is going be a star.
Awsome young man.
I am super excited about this young man and what he brings to the packers
I love all our picks tbh. Stacked with talent!
His focus is there.... He's going to be interesting...
Seems like a great kid, rooting for him.
Kings ability to follow the receiver and keep tabs on the ball = steals!
Kalen could be the most slept on player in this draft. I'm going to be pulling hard for Kalen!
Kalen your Definitely in the right place you will be coaced hard and you will succeed
LFG! Show them what ya got!
💚💛
Great interview!
The future is bright. We got a lot of sneaky picks this year!
Go Kalen Go!
Seems like a solid dude! Welcome to the Pack brother! 💪🏻
well spoken young man.
You sound like a great kid. Welcome to the team. Go ball out, leave everything on the field every play.
Charles Woodsone is one of the greatest of all time.
If you want to play at that level, brother, focus on your mental game just as much and more as you do on the physical, and never stop believing.
Go Slay!!
I hope this kid clicks, gotta root for this guy, I think we’ve all had something set us back. It’s about how you respond
A grateful - humble human being ! Best Wishes with the Pack ! 👍
Wow, I'm very impressed! Welcome to the State of Wisconsin!
The real 👑 !!!!!
A man who would be King - be that man, King! How you cannot root for this guy!
We got some real dogs in this draft !
I was really surprised to see this kid fall that far in the draft. All these other teams are going to be wishing they picked him in the later rounds Eric Stokes replacement.
This is the guy I'm most excited to see.
Him and cooper
Let’s get it kalen 🤙🏽
This boy definitely has a mountain to climb; I'm thinking the pack will keep 10 DB's - 5 cornerbacks and 5 safeties. Definitely will be interesting to see if any of these players stand out (or someone unexpected gets cut like Nixon or even Stokes, but Stokes will probably play the remainder of this year at least.)
He is an unpolished gem and I know Hafley will utilize him well 🔥🔥
Welcome to the family young man!
he will make the final roster ✅
This guy is gonna ball out .
This dudde is gonna be team green pro bowler for life
Like this guy a lot! Should’ve been 3-4th round
I really want him to succeed. Really all of them, but him especially
Kalen had me at "Woodson". this kid screams steal of the draft
He will be a steal! GPG 🧀.
❤
Kalen just come to work everyday, be humble and learn from that great group of guys and you'll be just fine. Love the Packers secondary right now.
If the coaches can unlock his potential and he has a season like 2 years ago at Penn. st., he could be a top tier corner in the league.
Welcome Kalen !
aye if he can out play his draft position it’s a huge boon for green bay. it feels like green bay has been over due for having that late round guy turn into a pro bowl caliber player
Hopefully he gets a different number than 34!
Hoping him, Ja, and Carrington can get the starting roles. 💪🏻
*Edit:* Obviously Ja will
If he came a year before he would been taken in the 1st round but had a disaster of season in college. That caused his draft stock fall to when the packers picked him. If the packers can get him back to is 2021-2022 form he will be top cornerback.
Steal! Rooting for you Kalen! Gpg
I think Greenbays draft was a home run. We got a mess of talented players.
Him, Ja, and the rest of the boys yap
Absolute steal!
Kalen looks like Ahman Greens twin
Benny Sapp not Snell :P
Why does our 7th rounder have a 11 min interview
What will determine his fate is whether he takes ownership for his 2023 season or not. If he takes the victimhood approach, he'll be gone fast. Anyone remember safety Jerron McMillian? 4th rd pick from 2012.
He fell chasing a deep ball in Baltimore and blamed it on the turf. He was cut the next day. That probably was not the first instance of excuse making, but the Packers do not want guys who point fingers. I wish King well and am rooting for him.
I can tell he doesn’t have the confidence, YET!
He is humble and ready to work!
“Chip on my shoulder “ oh yeah us packers fans know what that is!
I’m hoping he has the same number as Kevin king so my jersey is still current lol
currently javon bullard, was rudy ford
The Packers did something insane . Getting Valentine last year who is an obvious starter at Outside CB in round 7 and now King in round 7 who is as talented as any CB in the entire class including Arnold and Mitchell who went in round 1 . King was prospected to be a 1st round CB before the 2023 season . While the N Lions really fell off in 2023 and his defense around him was more than suspect and his game was throttled by putting him in bad coverage assignments all 2023 . The Packers have another steal in round 7 . However he does not believe in the Moon Landing and thinks Dinosaurs are fake. So he needs a bit of growing up to do and access to a large Observatory telescope so he can witness the rover and all our tracks on the moon himself. You can see that from earth with the right equipment . I think the Packers should take the time to show him he can believe some things America has done and revel in those accomplishments.
You sound insane. R U OK?
One of the steals of the draft?
Chill on asking him these round 7 questions everyone equal prime example look at stokes taken first round what has he even done for us leave the man alone
He will be lucky to make it a couple of months, much less a couple years😂😂😂
Steal of the entire draft. Dudes gonna be the best corner taken in this draft.
This kid is going to thrive with Jaire to look up to as a vet. I think he realizes the work he has to put in with falling so late jn the draft, and he'll be a very solid rotational piece for us
Dudes got it
Welcome to the Pack, 💚💛 Welcome to the Frozen Tundra that's Green Bay! 🍻🧀
GO PACK GO
The lions comment was hilarious 😂
