Tyler Vaughns caught the game-winning touchdown from Kenny Pickett for the Pittsburgh Steelers and scored with just three seconds remaining in Saturday night’s preseason debut. It wasn’t intended that he would score on the play, but he saw the opportunity and capitalized it.
That is what the whole play was about, indeed, right from the design. As both he and Pickett talked about after the game, they saw the defense from the Seattle Seahawks that they wanted to see and matched up against it.
“We were just waiting for our little keys, little downs. We got the concepts that wanted and we just executed”, Vaughns told Miss Matthews for the team’s website, then referenced head coach Mike Tomlin in explaining the planning behind the execution.
