Impact The Titans traded a sixth-round pick for King on Tuesday, and it appears the fourth-year cornerback is on track to make his debut with the team. It's unsettled how much work King will handle right away, but he could be deployed immediately as the team's slot corner and possibly as the punt returner, too.

Shipped to contender The Titans acquired King via trade from the Chargers for a sixth-round draft pick, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact King received All-Pro honors in 2018 for his work as a punt returner and defensive back. However, his role with the Chargers diminished of late. Since he was set to be an unrestricted free agent in March, the team opted to move on early. The 2017 fifth-round pick is a good fit with the Titans, who have struggled with injuries in their secondary this year and allowed 268.7 passing yards per game (sixth most in the league). King likely will cover the slot, and he may be available for this Sunday's game versus the Bears if he clears the COVID-19 protocols in time.
