King, 23, signed with the Colts in May after going undrafted out of SE Missouri State. At 6’5″, 209 pounds, King has good size for a receiver and will have a chance to showcase his talents with preseason approaching.

During his final year in college, King caught 69 passes for 797 yards and six TDs. Philadelphia also activated WR Devon Allen from the Non-Football Injury List and waived OTs Chim Okorafor and Trevor Reid.

Allen has been rehabbing a calf issue from last month while running the 110-meter hurdles in the USATF Championships and will participate in practice today.
