Vance McDonald Knows ‘The Stiff Arm Is What I’m Gonna Be Remembered For’

Sometimes there are just some plays that come to epitomize a player. I don’t think I need to reel off a list of examples, but many of them go on to be given ‘names’, like ‘The Catch’, and things of that nature. While it may not have ever been given a formal name, former Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald will always be remembered for his stiff arm of Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety and rag doll Chris Conte during the 2018 season.

Helping him to ignite a career year in 2018, McDonald posted his first and only 100-yard game in week two of that season in Tampa, catching four passes in the game for 112 yards.
