A versatile, explosive threat, McKinnon's skill set aligns best with zone-blocking schemes that incorporate spread formations and prioritize play-action and screen passes.
Year 1 impact as a change-of-pace and receiving back, with the ceiling to develop into a high-volume starter in a committee.
A traditional, smashmouth run-heavy offense that primarily uses a fullback and power-blocking schemes.
McKinnon's elite athleticism and versatility make him a valuable asset in modern, diverse offensive schemes seeking dynamic playmakers.
Selected #96 overall in Round 3 of the 2014 NFL Draft by Minnesota Vikings out of Georgia Southern.
