Learning to view life from a bird’ s-eye view is essential for success in all areas of life.
Whether in sports, business, relationships, or self-development, having a higher perspective allows us to see the bigger picture and make better decisions based on that understanding.
Xavier McKinney made his first public comment since the Giants decided not to use the franchise tag on the talented safety.
A pending free agent and one of the best safeties in the NFL, McKinney is approaching life from a different perspective, which could benefit the Eagles.
Starting to see this life shit from a birds view ..

The league’s teams with bird mascots are the Philadelphia Eagles, Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Baltimore Ravens, and Seattle Seahawks, and McKinney obviously could have been talking about any of them.
Philadelphia will be in the market for a free-agent safety, and McKinney is among the hybrid and versatile defenders who could flourish with Vic Fangio.
McKinney fits the profile of the new age of NFL safety play.
The 2020 second-round NFL Draft pick is just 24 and has been a captain for the past two seasons.
McKinney was sidelined for the first ten games of his rookie season with a broken foot but showed his durability by playing all 1,128 defensive snaps this season.
McKinney can play deep as a free safety, run in the box, and cover tight ends in man coverage.
