McKinstry brought the n ° 34 for the first time during the offseason of his recruit year before going to n ° 14. It was only when the retirement of the Vétéran Derek Carrk Carr’s quarterly would officially pass that the second-year corner half could go to No. 4. McKinstry wore n ° 1 throughout his career in high school and university.

This decision was eagerly awaited by fans, because many considered n ° 4 as a better adjustment for the second year defensive back. Switch reactions have been extremely positive with a fan saying “You think better than Kool-Aid # 4 be bought and supervised”
N ° 4 is most often worn by kickers, bettors and quarters, but a recent change of rule on jersey numbers in 2021 allowed players to bring numbers to a figure. This change of rule has seen a large number of players opting to carry numbers at a lower figure. Similarly to McKinstry, the corner half of the saints Alontae Taylor made a passage from n ° 27 to n ° 1 during his second season.
There is a lot of pressure on McKinstry to make a significant leap when he enters his second season. New Orleans hopes that the old corner half of the Alabama will be able to cement itself as the outside corner which begins with the team. McKinstry had a positive performance during his recruit campaign, but many growing pains appeared on a band. With the number switch, McKinstry’s second year campaign could be considered a clean slate with a new look.
