Snap Counts from the Steelers’ Week 3 win show the emergence of the two tight end set

Before the Week 3 game on Monday Night Football in Florida vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, many Pittsburgh Steelers fans wondered what the team saw in tight end Vance McDonald. After all, he had been hurt in 2017 more than he played, and he was following the same trend to start the 2018 season.

However, after a vicious stiff-arm, and a 75 yard touchdown run, the fan base caught a glimpse of just what McDonald can bring to the offense. But it goes well beyond his catch and run ability, and extends all the way to different offensive packages the team can deploy on a week-to-week basis.
