It has been a rocky season for rookie tight end Trey McBride, but he finally found himself in the end zone to grab his first career touchdown.

Following a bad snap and a fumble recovered by the Cardinals defense, Arizona took over with the ball at the eight-yard line.

While it was not exactly a flashy catch and run, McBride stumbled his way into the end zone for six points.

First TD of his career 🎉

McBride has seen his production ramp up rather quickly over the last half of this season With Zach Ertz out for the year, the rookie has had at least one reception in every game over the past six weeks.

And now, the Cardinals’ 2022 second round pick has an NFL touchdown under his belt.

The touchdown put Arizona back on top over Atlanta, they have a 10-7 lead with less than 10 minutes remaining in the first half.
