Monday was a rough night for the Buccaneers' Chris Conte.

Tampa Bay's safety was steamrolled by Steelers tight end Vance McDonald, who stiff-armed the eight-year veteran at the boundary after catching a pass from Ben Roethlisberger. With Conte heaped on the turf after being discarded, McDonald sprinted down the sideline for a 75-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter of Pittsburgh's Week 3 matchup with Tampa Bay.

Shortly after the sequence Conte was ruled out with a knee injury.

The Steelers survived a second-half rally from the Bucs to notch their first win of the season, 30-27.
