Trey McBride Sets NFL Record for Catches Without Touchdown

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has made headlines during the 2024 season by setting a new franchise record for receptions by a tight end, surpassing his own previous high with 89 catches. Despite his prolific performance, he has unfortunately set an NFL record for the most receptions in a season without a touchdown reception, breaking Diontae Johnson's record of 86. McBride's touchdown drought continued in a recent game against the New England Patriots, where he was tackled just short of the end zone after a shovel pass. He has achieved career highs in receptions and receiving yards, with 938 yards to date, but his only scores this season came from rushing and a fumble recovery. Quarterback Kyler Murray has expressed confidence that McBride will eventually find the end zone. As McBride approaches the end of the season, his performance may influence contract discussions in the offseason.
