Randy Fichtner is thrilled the patience shown in Vance McDonald has finally paid off. But even he’s surprised by certain aspects of McDonald’s game. Speaking with Bob Labriola for this week’s Coordinator’s Corner, Fichtner said he didn’t expect McDonald to play so physically after the catch like he has.
“He’s obviously really good running with it,” Fichtner said. “I don’t think I probably expected that to be as pronounced as it is. But he’s done a really nice job turning short plays into long plays and playing aggressive.”
McDonald has shown that unique power many times this season.
