Mike King Jr. brings instant linebacker juice to Sam Houston
In the 2026 season, Mike King Jr. is already on the field for Sam Houston and logged 2 tackles in the opener at Troy, including 1 solo stop and a half tackle, while checking in at 6-foot-0, 215 pounds as a junior linebacker. He looks like a compact, active downhill fit: the kind of defender who can help if you want toughness, effort, and fast-trigger play in the middle. His current profile points to an active rotational linebacker with upside, not a finished product yet—good fit for a team that values range, physicality, and special-teams energy.
