Green Bay, WI – July 2025
Excitement in Green Bay is palpable this summer, and much of it surrounds the arrival of standout safety Xavier McKinney. Fresh off signing his big contract, McKinney has wasted no time in setting the bar high for himself and the Packers.
“I came to Green Bay for the money—no doubt about it. But I’m going to prove I’m worth every penny. My first season with the Packers is going to end in February,” McKinney said candidly after a spirited practice, laying bare both his ambition and confidence.
Fans and teammates alike have responded to his transparency and winning mentality. McKinney brings not just skill, but swagger, and has already begun to emerge as a leader among a defense looking to take the next step.
Paired with a young, ascending offense led by Jordan Love, McKinney’s arrival has injected a fresh sense of belief into Titletown.
“He sets the tone every day. He’s here to get paid—and to win,” remarked a Packers coach. “That’s exactly the combination you want.”
With expectations higher than ever and the Lombardi Trophy still the ultimate goal, all of Green Bay will be watching to see if McKinney’s bold words become reality—and if this new era can end, fittingly, in February.
