Will Isaiah McKenzie’s versatility help him land a roster spot?
When the New York Giants were seeking a familiar face to add to their receiving corps for the 2024 season, they went out and recruited veteran pass catcher Isaiah McKenzie to join the competition.
The former fifth-round pick was traded to Buffalo during the following season, where he would see his usage as a slot receiver begin to develop. McKenzie played in at least 156 receiving snaps in each of his five seasons with the Bills, four of which came under Brian Daboll’s leadership as offensive coordinator and three notching at least 27 receptions 254 yards and an average catch of 9.4 yards.
McKenzie is joining a loaded receivers room in East Rutherford with several other talented playmakers already in the fold. This makes taking a special teams role the likeliest outcome for him to make the roster in 2024.After five years with the Bills, McKenzie took his talents to the Indianapolis Colts and returned to being primarily a special teams contributor. He saw 109 snaps in both the kick and punt return teams and was more efficient in the former area, averaging a solid 25.
