New York Giants safety Xavier McKinney was poised to take the next step in his development in 2022, perhaps to a Pro Bowl level. But then he broke three fingers on his left hand in an ATV accident during the Giants’ Week 9 bye week and was sidelined for the next seven weeks.
When McKinney returned in Week 17, he started in the Giants’ 38-10 win over the Indianapolis Colts with his hand heavily wrapped and protected. He would do so in the Giants’ two postseason games as well.
