Takk McKinley Fails 2nd-Consecutive Physical Since Being Released By Falcons, Waived By 49ers

Takk McKinley is having a rough 2020.

On Friday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic stated the San Francisco 49ers are waiving the defensive end with a failed physical designation.

Hearing the #49ers are going to waive/failed physical DE Takk McKinley after examining him this week. It means McKinley will go on waivers for a third time. Team not shutting the door on signing him when he's healthy. Presumably, his groin injury remains problematic.

This is now the second time McKinley has been claimed and subsequently failed a physical for his new team. The Bengals had waived him after a failed physical as well.

He finished last year on the injured reserve list due to a shoulder injury.

In 2020, McKinley has appeared in four games for the Falcons and recorded eight total tackles, one sack and one pass defense.
