Larry Fitzgerald

I think it goes without saying that Fitz knows the drill.  Sure, he needs to learn another offensive system this late in his career but he’s a quick learner.

Going into his 15th and maybe his last season in the NFL, Fitz should continue to earn his days off in camp.  He should also be very limited in getting preseason action.

He will get it so he can learn to connect with Bradford on the field in game situations.  However there is no need to leave him out on the field for any longer than a couple of series each game.

Fitz has three consecutive 100 reception seasons.  He had 109 receptions in 2017 and lead the NFL with 107 receptions in 2016.

I think he has it figured out.  He also always keeps himself in great shape anyway, so conditioning will not be an issue for the future Pro Football Hall of Famer.
