HOUSTON — Say it with us Arizona Cardinals fans: Kyler. Murray.
The Cardinals quarterback is making just his second start since tearing his ACL last December against the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Houston and is already showing the team and fans what they have been missing all season.
On the very first drive of the game, Murray capped off a 3-play. The 75-yard drive with a beautiful 48-yard bomb that dropped perfectly into the waiting arms of wide receiver Rondale Moore for a Cardinals touchdown.
That was Murray's first touchdown pass of the season, as he did not throw one in his season debut against the Atlanta Falcons last week (but he did run for a touchdown against Atlanta).
Fan Reaction
Fans were very excited on social media after Murray's touchdown pass.
