McKinzy and his battery mate Kris Frost were staples in the middle of the Auburn defense in 2014 and will provide new defensive coordinator Will Muschamp some veteran leadership in 2015.
As a sophomore in 2013, McKinzy led the Tigers in tackles and poised himself for a big junior campaign. The Birmingham, Ala., native recorded 91 total tackles this season.
