The San Francisco 49ers score first against the Arizona Cardinals on an 82-yard trick play featuring wide receivers Deebo Samuel and Mike Evans. The play is a hook-and-lateral that results in a touchdown and puts the 49ers ahead early in the game.
Reports describe Samuel as the primary beneficiary of the play, with him credited for 80 yards and a touchdown while not being credited with a reception. CBS Sports and The Athletic both frame the touchdown as the opening score for San Francisco, emphasizing the execution between the two veteran receivers. The accounts focus on the mechanics and yardage of the play rather than providing additional detail about the drive or broader game context.
