The Hail Murray was one of the most thrilling plays for the Arizona Cardinals this past season.
The game-winning touchdown by Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray to wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is now an award-winning play.

In Week 10 of the 2020 season with 11 seconds left, Murray completed a 43-yard pass to Hopkins in the end zone while covered by three Buffalo Bills defensive players. The Cardinals would go on to win the game on that play, 32-20.
