Trey McBride ties record in win over Steelers

McBride’s eight catches on Sunday gives him 56 on the season, tied for the most in a season by any Cardinals tight end.

In the win, tight end Trey McBride tied a single-season franchise record.

He tied the franchise’s single-season record for receptions by a tight end.

He had eight receptions for 89 yards and a touchdown, giving him a total of 56 receptions for 610 yards on the season.

The 56 catches match Zach Ertz’s 56 catches in 2021 and Jackie Smith’s 56 in 1967.

His 610 yards are the most by a tight end since Smith had 687 in 1970. He is only the third Cardinals tight end to have 600 receiving yards in a season.

The passing game went through McBride on Sunday. There were only 13 catches by the Cardinals as a team. He had eight of them.

With seven games to go, he will set a new single-season record with every catch he has.
