2020 Fantasy Outlook
Fitzgerald passed Tony Gonzalez last year to move into second on the all-time receptions list, and was already second only to Jerry Rice in receiving yards. Still, he's returning for another year at age 37 alongside newly acquired DeAndre Hopkins. Fitzgerald actually had an uptick in efficiency for him - 10.7 YPC, 7.4 YPT - but is mostly a big-bodied, slow-moving possession receiver with excellent hands. Fitzgerald did have four catches of 40-plus yards last year in Kliff Kingsbury's offense, as many as he'd had in the previous seven years combined, but we'd treat that as an anomaly. With Hopkins in town, Fitzgerald will be hard pressed to continue his 16-season streak of 100 targets - Christian Kirk is also around, and the team gave Fitzgerald only 109 last year in 16 games without Hopkins. But the receiving corps is not deep after last year's rookies failed to make an impact, so even at 37, Fitzgerald will have a meaningful role. Read Past Outlooks

Decision on future not imminent
Coach Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that Fitzgerald (groin) may take "a while" to make a decision about whether to return for an 18th season in 2021, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports
ANALYSIS
Fitzgerald has taken his time on such a call in each of the previous four offseasons, informing the Cardinals that he was putting off retirement for another year between mid-January and mid-February. He may do the same this time around, but after a campaign in which he missed game action for the first time since 2014, he may be closer to hanging up the cleats than at any other point. Fitzgerald also managed career-worst marks across the board -- 54 catches, 409 yards and one touchdown on 72 targets -- while tying his career low with 13 appearances (he also did this in 2006). He currently sits No. 2 all time in receptions and receiving yards behind Jerry Rice, with the former in reach if Fitzgerald decides to play another two or three seasons (he's 117 behind Rice). Fitzgerald isn't under contract for 2021, so the Cardinals likely will give him all the time he needs regarding his future.

Fitzgerald had a down year in 2018, but it's hard to knock him too much given the abysmal state of the Cardinals' QB play. Fitzgerald managed only 6.6 YPT (26th of the 28 100-target wideouts), hasn't made a 40-yard catch since 2015, hauled in only eight passes of 20-plus yards on 112 targets and scored on none of his six looks from inside the 10. On the positive side, he did have 69 catches and six TDs on a terrible team. At 6-3, 218, Fitzgerald has always been a big target, but his 4.48 speed from the 2004 combine is long gone. He's a big, slow receiver with good hands who can find openings in the short areas of the field and snag anything within his catch radius. The Cardinals signed him to a one-year, $11 million contract this offseason, so the soon-to-be 36-year-old (Aug. 31) should again have a significant role, but the shape and effectiveness of the offense remain to be seen. The Cardinals sent Josh Rosen packing and replaced him with the more dynamic (and smaller) Kyler Murray. New coach Kliff Kingsbury plans to call the plays himself - he hasn't hired an offensive coordinator - and if his tendencies at Texas Tech are any indication, the Cardinals should have a pass-heavy, up-tempo offense that benefits all the receivers. There will be competition for targets from second-year man Christian Kirk and rookies Andy Isabella and Hakeem Butler, and we expect David Johnson to get heavy use this year in the passing game, but there should still be something left over for Fitzgerald.
