D’Eriq King doesn’t have a position in the NFL — not yet. The New England Patriots are ready to experiment with the former Miami Hurricanes quarterback to see how he might fit in their offense.
King went undrafted last weekend, but signed with the Patriots not long after the draft process finished up. The 5-foot-11, 195-pound prospect was a dual threat, creating explosive plays with his arms and legs. That’s why he’s drawn comparisons to Julian Edelman, even if the retired Patriot was a better athlete than King coming out of Kent State.
