1.) He may be a little nuts.

2.) I strongly suspect him and Jaire will be spirit animals on this D.

3.) I also believe he's going to bring some serious mutha fuc**** attitude to this defense. Honestly, something I haven't seen since '09-10.

“He is a dude.”

That was Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur’s first impression of safety McKinney, an impression solidified through the offseason program and the start of OTAs.

“When he came here, when we signed him, when we went out to dinner together, I had a really good feel – just initial gut feel – that this is a dude,” LaFleur said at organized team activities last week. “And my experience with him up to this point is exactly that. He is a dude, and we’re fortunate to have him here.”

"It’s been fun from the team’s perspective, too. There’s always a bit of buyer beware in free agency because coaches and executives have little personal history with the players they’re courting. The talent is obvious on tape. But how will that player fit in the locker room?

In the case of McKinney, he’s matched – at least – the team’s hopes and expectations.

“Him and Ja(ire Alexander) are next to each other in the meetings,” defensive backs coach Ryan Downard said at the start of OTAs. “They compete, whether it’s in practice in the drills or in the strength and conditioning stuff, and he’s leading not only the safety group but the DB group as a whole with Ja. We need that. He helps the culture in the room, too, from the vantage point of toughness and practice habits and things like that.

“That is much needed and very much welcomed.”
