Ex-Steelers WR Tyler Vaughns Shines In XFL Championship Game

Did you watch the XFL Championship game Saturday night? If you didn’t, you missed former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Tyler Vaughns having a great showing for the Arlington Renegades, who upset the D.C. Defenders, 35-26. The Renegades entered the playoffs with a losing record (4-6) but managed to win the championship against a Defenders team that went 10-1.

Vaughns managed to catch all eight targets Saturday night for 83 yards and a touchdown, and he led all Arlington receivers. His touchdown reception in the game was a nine-yard pass from quarterback Luis Perez and that put the Renegades ahead 14-0 at the time.
