Experienced Blue Raiders CB with special-teams value and steady coverage upside
In the 2026 season, Herbert King profiles as a depth corner for Middle Tennessee with a veteran frame at 5-10, 176 and a reputation for steady development rather than flashy headlines.[2][5] Team materials note he was named the most improved corner after spring drills, which points to coach trust, competitive makeup, and year-over-year growth.[2] Stat listings show modest production so far, including a pass defended and an assisted tackle, so he looks more like a reliable fit for a rotation or special-teams role than a true shutdown showcase at this stage.[3][5]
