The Arizona Cardinals concluded their season on a high note, defeating the San Francisco 49ers 47-24, thanks in large part to Kyler Murray's stellar performance. Murray threw for 242 yards and four touchdowns, including a critical 12-yard pass to rookie Marvin Harrison Jr. in the fourth quarter, showcasing the potential for next season. Harrison, the No. 4 overall pick, finished the season with eight touchdown catches, tying a franchise rookie record.
The Cardinals improved to 8-9, winning four games more than last year but still falling short of the playoffs for the third consecutive season. Coach Jonathan Gannon expressed pride in his team's resilience against a tough opponent like the 49ers.
