Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride scored his first receiving touchdown of the season during Week 17 against the Los Angeles Rams in Los Angeles. On his 98th reception of the season, McBride caught a one-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Kyler Murray, who had promised to get him into the end zone. Despite the blocked extra point that followed, leaving the Rams ahead 10-6, McBride's touchdown ended his streak of most receptions in a season without a touchdown, returning the record to Diontae Johnson. McBride's impressive performance included 12 receptions for 123 yards and a touchdown, bringing his season total to over 1,000 receiving yards and placing him second in franchise history for receiving yards by a tight end.
