The San Francisco 49ers concluded their disappointing 2024 NFL season with a heavy 47-24 defeat against the Arizona Cardinals. Their final record of 6-11 left them at the bottom of the NFC West, leading to the team holding the 11th overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.
Young players faced injury setbacks, as starting safety Malik Mustapha and backup running back Isaac Guerendo both exited with knee injuries during the game. Additionally, wide receiver Jauan Jennings was ejected for back-to-back penalties, falling short of a 1,000-yard season after finishing with 975 yards.
