The Colts signed King to a contract Tuesday, Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
King has operated as a core special-teams contributor with the Patriots since 2015, when he entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Auburn. The 28-year-old stands to handle a similar role in Indianapolis, one which likely won't involve handling many snaps on defense.

King (undisclosed) has passed his physical and has been activated off the PUP list Saturday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
EDGE Analysis
King has dealt with numerous injuries to start his NFL career, but the 28-year-old will look for a fresh start as he returns to training camp healthy. King is firmly supplanted behind Adrian Phillips and Kyle Dugger on the depth chart, but he will have an opportunity to make a name for himself on special teams.

King (quadriceps) was placed on the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
King is still healing from the torn quadriceps he suffered in August of 2019, and he was moved from the active/PUP list. The shift means King will miss at least the first six games of the year and won't count against the team's active roster unless he's activated.
