Seahawks Beat Cardinals on Last-Second 52-Yard Field Goal After Kickoff-Rule Penalty

A landing-zone infraction on the ensuing kickoff gave Seattle prime field position for Sam Darnold’s brief, decisive drive.

Overview

  • Jason Myers converted from 52 yards as time expired after Chad Ryland’s kick failed to land inside the 20, placing Seattle at its own 40-yard line.
  • Sam Darnold went 18-of-26 for 242 yards and a touchdown and found Jaxon Smith-Njigba for 22 yards to set up the winner, with Smith-Njigba posting a game-high 79 receiving yards.
  • Seattle led 20-6 before Arizona tied it late, as Kyler Murray finished 27-of-41 for 200 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions.
  • The Seahawks sacked Murray six times, reinforcing an early-season defensive surge under head coach Mike Macdonald.
  • Seattle moved to 3-1 and extended its streak over Arizona, which fell to 2-2 and is adjusting without injured RB James Conner after consecutive walk-off defeats.
