Will play in Birmingham Bowl King will play in Georgia Tech's bowl game against Vanderbilt, Luke Hetrick of WSB-TV reports.

Impact King will suit up for the bowl game despite still nursing a shoulder injury that he's dealt with the past two months. The quarterback plans to return next season as well, a huge boost for a Georgia Tech team that is coming off a solid 7-5 campaign. King has thrown for 1,910 yards, 11 touchdowns and one interception while rushing for 564 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground.

Incredible day in heartbreaking loss King completed 26 of 36 passes for 303 yards and two touchdowns during Friday's 44-42 overtime defeat against Georgia. He also had 24 rushes for 110 yards with three touchdowns.

Impact King was a force to be reckoned with as he did all but play defense for the Yellow Jackets. King racked up over 400 yards of total offense with five total touchdowns in the regular season finale. The Yellow Jackets will await their bowl selection and wait for a decision to be made on King's future as he is draft eligible with another year of college eligibility remaining as well.

Set to be QB1 King will be the Yellow Jackets' starter, per Kelly Quinlan of Rivals.com.

Impact King will start for Georgia Tech after playing sparingly in recent weeks. Aaron Philo will reportedly only be an emergency option in order to preserve his redshirt. King hasn't played true starter reps since Week 7 against North Carolina.

Little action in win over NCSU King was 3-for-3 passing for seven yards during Thursday's 30-29 victory against North Carolina State. He also had nine rushes for 18 yards with one touchdown.

Big day on the ground in win King was 6-for-6 passing for 32 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 28-23 victory versus Miami (FL). He also had 20 rushes for 93 yards with one touchdown.

Will start Saturday King (upper body) will start Saturday's game against Miami, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact King made a brief departure for the locker room during warmups, but the junior returned and will indeed get the starting nod for the Yellow Jackets on Saturday. King has a total of 14 touchdowns to his name through the first seven games and will aim to add to that total Saturday.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Rejoins warmups after brief departure King (upper body) has returned to warmups after departing briefly, Garrett Chapman of 247Sports reports.

Impact King took snaps from the starting center early on, but his early departure was a bit concerning. Fortunately, it appears his departure wasn't anything serious, and the junior's return to warmups makes it promising he'll get the starting nod under center Saturday. If not, Aaron Philo seems the most likely candidate to draw the nod.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Departs warmups early King (upper body) left the field before the end of warmups, Kelly Quinlan of Rivals.com reports.

Impact King was initially warming up with the starters, but he departed for the locker room before the end of warmups, leaving freshman Aaron Philo to lead the quarterbacks. It will be worth monitoring the starting quarterback situation as the game draws closer, but it may be best to view King as a true game-time call.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up with starters King (upper body) is warming up with Georgia Tech's starters ahead of the Yellow Jackets' clash with Miami, Alex Farrer of Rivals.com reports.

Impact King has been deemed questionable against the Hurricanes, but he's warming up with Georgia Tech's starters prior to kickoff. This doesn't necessarily mean the quarterback will return, but it's certainly a good sign for a yellow jackets team that will need all of the manpower it can muster against a loaded Miami team.

NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

True game-time decision Saturday King (upper body) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game versus Miami, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact King has missed the last two games due to an upper body injury, including last week where he was also considered a game-time decision. He will warm up ahead of the game to test his injury. If he does not end up playing, Zach Pyron is likely to get the starting nod for the third straight week.
