Cardinals hope to have WR Larry Fitzgerald (COVID) back soon

Dec 07, 2020

There’s reason to believe Larry Fitzgerald is trending toward returning in the near future.

“As far as his health, from what I’m hearing, he’s doing better. I’m not sure exactly where we’re at with that, but we’re hoping to have him back soon,” Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said on Monday, via Katherine Fitzgerald of the Arizona Republic.

Fantasy Impact:

Fitzgerald tested positive for COVID-19 and hasn’t played since Arizona’s loss to Seattle in Week 11. The story went on to say in his 17th season with the Cardinals, Fitzgerald has made 43 receptions for 336 yards in 10 games. He’s currently on pace to fall short of 100 targets for the first time in his long career.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
