Xavier McKinney not worried about making big plays

After being drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft, New York Giants’ rookie safety Xavier McKinney has come with plenty of hype out of the University of Alabama.

Now that McKinney is back after being activated from injured reserve, everyone is waiting for him to make a big play. But he admits he’s not pressing to do so, instead he’s hoping to just do his job when he’s on the field.

“As far as making that play, I know it will come. I’m not trying to force anything. Just trying to make sure I do my job and make sure I execute for the team,” said McKinney when talking to reporters this week.
