Signed to a four-year deal with hopes of shoring up the Green Bay Packers’ big-play and takeaway production, Xavier McKinney needed only a single drive to provide a return on investment. Monitoring the Philadelphia Eagles’ downfield routes closely, the fifth-year veteran settled into ballhawking mode, tracking down a deep pass attempt for an interception, bringing it back to the 19-yard line. McKinney’s efforts helped the Packers battle valiantly in a 34-29 loss on Sept. 6, 2024, with the new safety recording four tackles, one pass defensed, and an interception (for 17 yards).
