Larry Fitzgerald kept moving up the all-time lists

There’s not enough that can ever be said about the greatness that is Larry Fitzgerald. The future first-ballot Hall of Famer has done it all over his 13 seasons in the NFL. He will go down as one of the greatest wide receivers the league has ever seen, and rightfully so.

As he has aged, he has had to adjust the way he plays, and the team has schemed accordingly. However, it hasn’t stopped him from putting up huge numbers. Thus far, in 2016, he has 102 receptions, 980 yards, and 5 touchdowns.

Fitzgerald has moved up the all-time list in every category. In touchdown receptions, he has moved from 11th to 8th. He’s moved up several spots, into the top ten, in receiving yards. In receptions, he ceremoniously moved all the way to 3rd all-time.

The nine-time, and soon to be ten-time, Pro Bowler has been a source of joy for Cardinals fans since he came into the league. As his career winds down, it would be nice for him to go out with a Super Bowl win. That’s not happening this year, but his continued move up the all-time lists means something to his fans.
