FOX Sports’ USFL Play of the Year Fan Vote: Showboats’ Ryan McDaniel wins
The 2023 season was filled with countless memorable moments across an action-packed 10 weeks, and the postseason was nothing short of the same. Out of the 16 awe-inspiring plays chosen to start the FOX Sports USFL 2023 Play of the Year Fan Vote competition, it all came down to two Memphis Showboats wide receivers.
In the end, Ryan McDaniel and his wild one-handed touchdown beat out teammate Derrick Dillon‘s kick-6 touchdown with 52.1% of the final vote.
McDaniel’s winning play came in Week 3 when quarterback Cole Kelley threw the ball near the pylon to McDaniel, who bobbled the reception twice before gathering it and getting both feet in bounds for the go-ahead touchdown.
You can expect even more jaw-dropping action when the Pittsburgh Maulers take on the Birmingham Stallions to close out the season in the 2023 USFL Championship Game on Saturday (8 p.m. ET).
