Reminds Us Of
Alabama · HS Class of 2017
2020 Draft · Rnd 2 · Pick 36Xavier McKinney was a highly instinctive safety who showed outstanding recognition skills and play speed while leading his high school team to deep playoff runs as a prospect in the 2017 cycle. The same can be said for Jacoby Mathews. Both share similar size (6-foot-1, 195 pounds) and athleticism at the same stage, while Mathews has longer arms. Both McKinney and Mathews also played offense at times during their high school careers. McKinney played receiver for Roswell (Ga.) High, while Mathews saw time at quarterback and receiver at Ponchatoula (La.) High.
