He was much sturdier at contact. Not in a Jamaal Charles way where contact balance allowed him to keep moving after contact, but mostly in a mini-Bettis sort of 'physics work' way.

He still has those short/choppy strides so he's solid out of the backfield and he still has good hands. He doesn't have any burst to speak of but he's not pretending like he does anymore.

He's not the guy he was when he was drafted. And while that's trading any ceiling at all for a playable floor, at least the floor is viable now. The ceiling was pretty obviously a pipe dream to begin with.
He had 1.1 yards after contact/attempt last year, his worst of his career. I think they used him so infrequently that when they would use him and he'd have a good play, people would fixate on that play more than they otherwise would. Cause he was really bad last year.

McKinnon is done. I'm happy he got to contribute in the SB but 2022 McKinnon ain't walking through that door. There will be any number of UDFAs that can give us more than he'll give us in 2024. There will be street free agents that can do it.

McKinnon is shot.
Yep. Early on last year I said Jet is out of runway.

I think some of that was he got carries at the end of the game. Reid put him in because he doesn't fumble and Pacheco had got a lot of run. I think that affected his performance. He had some decent plays in limited use. If he's gotta take 20 carries, **** that we have to have something better. But if he plays 20 snaps, I'm good.
