Xavier McKinney
S - Green Bay Packers
Week 12 Outlook
Availability
Packers head coach Matt LaFleur gave Xavier McKinney minicamp off.
Fantasy Impact
McKinney previously exceeded his threshold for offseason participation to qualify for his workout bonuses. He'll likely be back at practice soon for Green Bay.
The Packers are signing S Xavier McKinney to a four-year, $68M deal.
Fantasy Impact
McKinney is set to earn $25M in his first season in Green Bay. The 25-year-old tallied 116 total tackles, one forced fumble, and three interceptions in 17 games with the Giants last season. McKinney will play an important role in the Packers’ secondary in 2024.
Free agent safety Xavier McKinney is considered a top target for the Packers and Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
The Giants are reportedly interested in retaining McKinney, but he is expected to receive strong interest elsewhere. The 25-year-old safety tallied 78 tackles, one forced fumble, three interceptions, and 11 passes defensed in a strong season with the Giants.
Xavier McKinney announced on Twitter Monday morning he suffered a hand injury on the Giants bye week and is expected to miss the next few weeks.
Fantasy Impact
McKinney posted a note to Twitter mentioning he went to Cabo and suffered a hand injury on a guided sight-seeing tour on ATVs. This will be a pretty big blow to a Giants defense that has been super solid so far this season.
Giants second-round S Xavier McKinney suffered a broken foot and will undergo surgery on Wednesday afternoon to have it repaired.
Fantasy Impact
This is a big blow to the Giants secondary as they invested a second-round pick on McKinney in April's draft. The Alabama product will now be looking at a 2-3 month timetable for recovery and could potentially miss a significant portion of his rookie season. Next in line for the Giants is Julian Love, a 2019 fourth-round selection.
