Green Bay Packers safety Xavier McKinney intercepted Sam Darnold on Sunday at Lambeau Field and became the first player in franchise history with an interception in each of his first four games with the team.
McKinney, the team’s prized free agent acquisition, has intercepted Jalen Hurts, Anthony Richardson, Will Levis and now Darnold during the Packers’ first four games.
On Sunday, McKinney ranged to his right and picked off Darnold’s attempt for Aaron Jones near the goal line. The play was review and upheld on replay.

The interception prevented a prime scoring opportunity for the Vikings in the third quarter.
McKinney has four interceptions in four games, putting him on pace for 17. The team record is 10 interceptions in a single season.
McKinney, a second-round pick in 2020, left the New York Giants to sign a four-year, $67 million deal with the Packers in March.
