Comes up with turnover
McKinley recovered a Deadrin Senat-forced fumble and ran the ball back for a 17-yard return during Thursday's 19-7 preseason loss to Washington.
Analysis: McKinley is an undeniable X-factor for the Falcons defense, having shown promise as an edge rusher through his first two pro campaign but not yet having blossomed into a Pro-Bowl caliber player. In suiting up for 33 of Atlanta's 34 regular- and postseason contests between 2017 and 2018, McKinley registered 15 sacks, 27 QB hits, 16 tackles for loss and two forced fumbles. Last year he started off hot with 4.5 sacks through the first three games, but he registered 2.5 takedowns in his remaining…read more

Doing well after mental evaluation
McKinley is spending time with family in California after his friend summoned police Tuesday out of concern for the defensive end's mental well being, Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: No charges were filed as a result of McKinley's visit with police Tuesday, and Falcons spokesman Brian Cearns noted Wednesday that McKinley has been in "constant communication" with the team and seems to be in a "good spot." Unless the Falcons suggest otherwise in the weeks to come, McKinley is expected to be in attendance for OTAs.

Undergoing mental evaluation
McKinley was detained by Los Angeles police on Tuesday after his friend grew concerned for his well-being and called 911, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. It was reported that McKinley cooperated and left with police without being booked for any sort of crime.
Analysis: McKinley's status remains unclear. Reports said he was spending time at a Los Angeles hotel when his friend became concerned and called local police. In a statement released Tuesday, head coach Dan Quinn reflected on the situation by saying, "Anytime a situation occurs that (could be) related to mental health issues we take it very seriously. We will do everything we possibly can to support and assist (McKinley) as our players' mental and physical well being are always our top priority."

Picks up sack in Sunday's finale
McKinley registered a sack Sunday during the Falcons' 34-32 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Since entering the league in 2017, McKinley has flown under the radar as one of the NFL's lesser-known pocket disruptors, registering 13 sacks on 1,119 defensive snaps. That translates to one sack every 86.1 plays, an average that rivals rising young pass rushers Myles Garrett (74.6) and Yannick Ngaokoue (71.3). Heading into his third year, McKinley will continue to be a crucial component to a Falcons defense that struggled to get after the quarterback in 2018 with just 37 sacks as a unit.

Formidable defensive showing Sunday
McKinley collected three tackles and half a sack during Sunday's 24-10 win against the Panthers.
Analysis: McKinley was Taylor Heinicke's worst nightmare Sunday, picking up a season-high four QB hits in addition to his 0.5 sacks. After amassing six sacks as a rookie in 2017 despite playing only 38 percent of the defensive snaps, McKinley is tied with Jack Crawford for the team lead with 6.5 sacks this season. An emerging pass-rushing star in his sophomore campaign, McKinley looks to take advantage of a Buccaneers offensive line that has surrendered the fourth-most QB hits (105) when the Falcons…read more
