VIDEO: Former Raider Marquette King Launches a Mammoth Punt in XFL Debut
By Scott Rogust
If you've tuned into the XFL's opening weekend, you were bound to find some ex-NFL players on the field. That was the case on Sunday, as viewers were treated to seeing ex-Oakland Raiders and Denver Broncos punter Marquette King donning a St. Louis BattleHawks uniform. In the third quarter against the Dallas Renegades, King punted a monster 60-plus yard punt to pin the opposition in their own territory.
What a cannon for a leg. We sure King wasn't wearing a steel-toe boot on the field?
If he keeps this up, the NFL will be calling King about a potential return for sure. There's a lot of team that could use a rocket like that on special teams.
