King sealed the Carolina Panthers' 33-30 win with a 5-yard rushing touchdown at the clock expired in the fourth quarter, erasing a 30-27 Arizona Cardinals lead that had stood since the 1:55 mark. The game was tied four times, most recently at 17-17 at halftime after a flurry of second-quarter scoring on both sides. Arizona grabbed a 30-27 lead when Kedon Slovis found Bryson Green on a 1-yard pass with 1:55 remaining, but King — who finished 21-of-34 for 180 yards and two passing touchdowns in addition to his rushing score — drove Carolina down the field and punched it in himself.

This was a preseason exhibition on Hall of Fame Weekend with no standings or bracket implications. Carolina's offense showed multiple contributors: King accounted for three total touchdowns, AJ Dillon and Anthony Tyus III each found the end zone, and Ryan Fitzgerald converted both of his field goal attempts. For Arizona, Carson Beck completed 15 of 19 passes for 188 yards and a touchdown, and Chad Ryland went three-for-three on field goals, including efforts from 35, 43, and 35 yards.
