Xavier McKinney

Overall, a versatile player who has great speed on the back end of a defense. Smart and quick processor. Lean frame and has the tendency of being hesitant in the run game. Shifty though and is able to stick with quicker receivers. Has issues with smaller, shiftier backs in the run game though. CEH gave him fits all game. Best in zone coverage and excels in reading and reacting quickly. Was used all over the field at Alabama and can bring that versatility to the NFL. Best fit is most likely as a FS (Single high) or potentially as a nickel corner.

Xavier McKinney (foot) to undergo surgery on broken foot

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.
