Still reveling in his team’s win against the San Francisco 49ers, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen tweeted a clip Wednesday of him celebrating a play, captioned “Shabbat Shalom.”
Just a little early, Josh!

Let’s chalk it up to excitement. The game ended in a win, but Arizona Sports had a mixed report on Rosen’s performance.
The Jewish athlete was strong in the first half, according to Arizona Sports, proving to be a “critical piece in keeping drives alive for the Cardinals.” The second half was another story: “The rookie and much of the offense were non-existent,” it reported.
Ultimately, the Cardinals were victorious 28-18. Mazel tov!
