About Chris
Expert Analysis
Brian Jerzak | Prep Redzone Scout
King is one of the most dominant players at the 9-man level. His combination of size, speed, and athleticism is just too much for most offensive linemen. King plays both defensive end and defensive tackle for the Rangers’ defense. He is powerful enough to split double teams and quick enough – both with his hands and feet – to throw off an initial block as well as a running back in pass protection. When he gets to the ball, he doesn’t tackle; he engulfs the ball carrier. As a pass rusher, he has developed some solid pass-rush moves to go along with his quickness and strength.

9 sacks, 69 tackles, 20 TFL, 4 FF
I could not find any highlights for King, but his game splits are impressive. Through the regular season and into the first two rounds of the playoffs, King recorded at least one sack or tackle behind the line of scrimmage. The junior had three multi-sack games in 2023, with the biggest statistical game against Cass Lake-Bena. King was in on three sacks with nine total tackles during the Rangers’ dominating victory. He’s not just a pass rusher; his best overall game might have been later in the season against Blackduck. King only had one sack but ended the game with ten total tackles – four for losses. That is excellent work for any defensive lineman, but especially for a guy who spends most of his time on the interior.
