Scouting Report:

Combining kick power and athleticism, Marquette King is an interesting prospect. Has an 80-yard punt in his college career. Clocked at 4.67 in the 40 yard dash. Ranked as No. 5 punter in Division II after senior year and 13th in the nation in net punting yardage. As a senior, averaged 43 yards per punt, with 21 inside the 20 yard line and 9 touchbacks. Intriguing young player with excelent speed for the position, which could make him one of the best punters in terms of return coverage. Needs to figure out how to use his great leg power more intelligently and with more accuracy. King is transitioning from a two-handed drop to the NFL used one-handed drop.
