McDonald aimed to 'just crush' Conte on vicious, viral stiff arm

Vance McDonald had one goal with his vicious stiff arm.

"Just punish him. Inflict as much force on him as possible. That's the first thing I think of," the Pittsburgh Steelers tight end told reporters, per NFL Total Access, about the now-viral play.

McDonald imposed his will on Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Chris Conte with a devastating stiff arm on a 75-yard catch-and-run touchdown on Monday Night Football.

McDonald actually targeted a specific area when he took down Conte.

"His temple. To just crush him. Yeah, that's what I was aiming for," McDonald said.
