Conor McKenna (born 28 March 1996) is an Irish sportsman who currently plays Gaelic football for Eglish St Patrick's and the Tyrone county team. He previously played professional Australian rules football for the Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
McKenna was born in County Tyrone, Ireland, and grew up in the village of Benburb near Dungannon. There he played Gaelic football for Eglish GAC and the Tyrone minors. In December 2013, the then 18-year-old McKenna attracted interest from several AFL clubs when he was spotted at a talent combine in Ireland. Ten months later, on 3 October 2014, Essendon secured McKenna to a two-year deal as a Category B rookie.
