The Arizona Cardinals perhaps saved the early part of their season with their 29-23 overtime victory over the Las Vegas Raiders after having trailed 20-0 at halftime. It was a historic win in many ways.
It was the Cardinals’ biggest comeback since 1999 and it also had a couple of historic performances by players.
As a result, two items from the game will be on display at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
The first is the ball the Cardinals used on offense.
🗣 Coming soon to the Pro Football Hall of Fame

Quarterback Kyler Murray became the first player in NFL history to run for a touchdown, pass for a touchdown, have a two-point conversion run and two-point conversion pass. He signed the ball that was used and that will soon be on display.
The second item is cornerback Byron Murphy’s game jersey, which he signed.
This isn't the only item from the @AZCardinals' win in Las Vegas last weekend that is being prepared to be put on display.
There's also a jersey worn by @byronmurphy, whose 59-yard fumble return was the longest overtime fumble return for a TD in NFL history pic.twitter.com/1IuHA6Axat

Murphy had the game-winning score in overtime, a 59-yard fumble return for a touchdown.
It was the longest overtime fumble return for a touchdown in NFL history.
It is one of those wins where, years from now, you can tell people you saw.
What a win!
