Steelers Tight End Vance McDonald sparked a 30 point first half with one of the nastiest stiff arms you’ll ever see during Monday night’s game against Tampa Bay.
Buccaneers safety Chris Conte thought it would be a good idea to go high on McDonald but he was wrong.
GROWN MAN STIFF ARM.

“It’s not often that safeties or corners take me up high so I took advantage," McDonald said after the game. “Just punish him . . . just inflict as much force on him as possible. It’s the first thing I think of.”
To say McDonald’s play rejuvenated a Steelers team that started out sluggish would be an understatement and Cam Heyward took notice!

Steelers guard Ramon Foster said on The Fan Morning Show Tuesday, "you don't see a grown man get disrespected like that."
Conte was injured during the play and missed the rest of the game.
In addition, a reporter in Nashville, also named Chris Conte, experienced a lot of misplaced harassment Monday evening.
