Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald managed just 1 catch for 4 yards in Sunday's win over the Patriots. The 1 catch matched a career low. The 4 yards were a career low. HC Ken Whisenhunt blamed Fitz's poor outing on New England's defensive scheme. "I think Coach Belichick tries to take away the one thing you do best, and he tried to take Larry away," Whisenhunt said. That's true. But we all know the bigger issue here is Arizona's QB play. Kevin Kolb completed just 15 passes for 140 yards on Sunday. Even worse is that he only targeted Fitz 5 times. Regardless of how much coverage the guy is seeing, he needs more than 5 chances. Fitzgerald is talented enough to produce regardless of how ugly the situation is around him. Keep plugging him into your starting lineup -- big games are coming. But you'll have to live with more outings like Sunday's.
On Friday, WR Larry Fitzgerald spoke about his NFL future on SiriusXM Mad Dog Sports Radio. “I just don’t have the urge to play right now,” Fitz said. “I don’t know how I’ll feel in September, October, November moving forward, but as of today I just don’t have the urge.” Currently a free agent, the 38-year-old was always believed to be leaning toward retirement. If that holds up, he'll retire with 1,432 career catches — 2nd most all-time.
NFL executives expect WR Larry Fitzgerald to retire at some point prior to the 2021 season, according to The Athletic's Mike Sando. Fitz has so far been hush-hush about his plans. He turns 38 in August and mustered just 7.6 yards per catch on 54 grabs last year. We've been anticipating this news: Fitzgerald isn't even in our 2021 WR rankings.
Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald (groin) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Rams. With WR Christian Kirk on the COVID list, Arizona is down to WRs DeAndre Hopkins, KeeSean Johnson and Andy Isabella.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Cardinals are "not optimistic" that WR Larry Fitzgerald will play today against the Rams. With Christian Kirk already on the COVID list, that would likely elevate Andy Isabella to the #3 WR spot behind DeAndre Hopkins and KeeSean Johnson. Isabella has been a healthy scratch the past 3 weeks. Arizona already gets a tough matchup vs. the Rams defense. Losing 2 of his normal top 3 WRs certainly doesn't help QB Kyler Murray.
Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald has been activated from the COVID list. He should step back in as Arizona's #3 WR against the Giants this weekend, pushing Andy Isabella back to 4th on the depth chart. Fitz has been a non-factor in fantasy this year, averaging 4.3 catches and 34 yards per game with 0 TDs.
