He played college football at California University of Pennsylvania, and signed with the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent following the 2014 NFL draft.

McDonald was a three-time all-conference player, three-time all-area and two-time team MVP while playing at Jefferson High School in Shenandoah Junction, West Virginia. As a junior, he was named Defensive Player of the Year by The Journal. The newspaper also named him Male Field Athlete of the Year in his senior year, during which he was part of the high school's state championship in track and field.
McDonald transferred to California University in 2012 after playing three seasons at Fairmont State University in Fairmont, West Virginia. After missing the 2012 season due to injury, he was a senior captain for the Vulcans in 2013. In his senior year, he recorded 89 tackles and returned all three of his interceptions for touchdowns. His three interception returns for touchdowns made him the first Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference player to accomplish the feat in over 10 years.

After starting the 2014 season on the team's practice squad, he was signed to the active roster on September 29.
