The world may never know whether or not Deommodore Lenoir made any birthday wishes as the calendar turned to Oct. 6, 2024, but the game rewarded the gifted four-year defensive back with a well-deserved gift nonetheless: his first-ever NFL touchdown. Meeting his just-as-speedy teammate on the opposite edge of the San Francisco 49ers’ ferocious special teams unit, Leonir worked as one-half of a flawlessly-efficient combination, capturing his teammate’s field goal block with a 61-yard scoop-and-score touchdown. The Arizona Cardinals conquered this hotly-contested NFC West clash in 24-23 fashion, but Leonir was extraordinary nonetheless, chalking up eight tackles, one pass defended, five yards allowed (on four targets), and a defensive touchdown.
