Xavier McKinney pick-six defining moment in Giants win over Raiders

Many wins in this league have defining moments.

It could be back and forth with maybe a tie score here and there, but one play could provide a team a lead and that ballclub doesn’t look back thereafter.

In Sunday’s Giants win over the talented Las Vegas Raiders, it was a third-quarter pick-six from Xavier McKinney.

On a Derek Carr pass to Hunter Renfrow in Vegas territory, the second-year safety, who the Giants drafted in the 2020 second round out of Alabama, utilized superb vision, made a great play on the ball, and the rest was history.
