Vance McDonald is for real

So for the 4th straight week we can put the tight end position as an unexpected positive. For the second straight week we can put Vance McDonald. McDonald had 5 receptions for 62 yards. It’s not the biggest stat line you’ve ever seen but he looked tough, athletic, and a reliable pair of hands.

The Steelers have been hoping for a healthy McDonald for a couple years. McDonald has shown us why. Some players never shake the injury bug. Let’s hope he stays healthy because this guy is fun to watch and so far worth the wait.
