Daniel King brings veteran size, proven pass protection, and transfer pedigree to UNC’s line
In the 2025 season, Daniel King arrived at North Carolina as a 6-5, 340-pound redshirt senior with rare experience and real credibility: he was a two-time All-Sun Belt selection at Troy, started three seasons there, and allowed only nine sacks in 1,396 career pass-blocking snaps. He’s more than just big-body bulk — reports consistently describe him as a dependable right-side starter with strong run-blocking ability, leadership traits, and the kind of grown-man presence coaches love in the trenches. If your team needs a plug-and-play veteran who raises the floor, he’s a strong fit.
