Seven years later, the Pittsburgh Steelers finally landed versatile cornerback Desmond King II.
One day after King was released by the Houston Texans, the Steelers and GM Omar Khan pounced, signing the veteran to a one-year deal Wednesday, giving Pittsburgh a feisty, experienced cornerback that can play inside and outside, and can return punts, too.
Pittsburgh did a ton of work on the former Iowa standout in the pre-draft process leading up to the 2017 NFL Draft. King eventually landed with the Los Angeles Chargers before spending half a season with the Tennessee Titans and the last two seasons with the Houston Texans.
