Rookie safety Xavier McKinney is good on Zoom. The Giants soon might learn whether that translates to the field.
The second-round pick made a positive first impression last spring when he wowed defensive coordinator Patrick Graham during the team's virtual minicamp.
"He’s real smart over Zoom," Graham said Friday.
McKinney impressed further during training camp but again had to settle for the NFL’s version of virtual learning after having surgery to repair a fractured foot late in training camp.
But as Thanksgiving weekend winds down, it finally may be time for McKinney to take what he learned over Zoom and on the practice field and use it in a game.
