New York Giants safety Xavier McKinney will miss multiple weeks with a hand injury he sustained while riding an ATV during a bye-week vacation in Mexico.
"During our bye week, I went away to Cabo," McKinney wrote."While there, I joined a group for a guided sight-seeing tour on ATVs. Unfortunately had an accident and injured my hand. The injury will keep me sidelined for a few weeks.
"I will do everything I can to get back as quickly as possible to I can contribute to what we're building here in NY."was not designated as of early Monday afternoon. McKinney, 23, is in his second season as a full-time starter at free safety. A second-round pick in the 2020 draft,. In 2021, McKinney tallied 93 tackles, 10 passes defended and a team-high five interceptions. He's started every game in 2022, tallying 38 tackles, four passes defended and one sack.
Rookie Dane Belton and third-year pro Jason Pinnock are next up on the Giants depth chart. Belton, a fourth-round pick out of Iowa, has two starts this season and is the most likely candidate to take McKinney's place in the starting lineup as the Giants enter the second half of the season with a 6-2 record good for a second-place tie with the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East.
NFL contracts often have clause prohibiting activities like riding motorcycles and ATVs. It's not clear if McKinney's does, but it's unlikely the Giants would look seek to void the contract of a respected and valuable contributor like McKinney.
