GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Green Bay Packers won’t rush Kevin King, even if the team’s top draft pick is eager to get to work after missing virtually all the offseason program because of NFL rules.
The rookie cornerback was anxious to take part in the first of the team’s three minicamp practices on Tuesday, though coach Mike McCarthy limited him to just individual drills. It is unlikely King will do any 11-on-11 work before the camp ends on Thursday.
“We’re going to bring him along at a (slow) pace and see how he does,” McCarthy said.
