Fitzgerald will be back with Cardinals in 2017
TEMPE, Ariz. -- Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald has confirmed he will be back to play a 14th NFL season.
In a text to azcardinals.com's Darren Urban, Fitzgerald confirmed a report that he had told ESPN's Jim Trotter on Wednesday that he would play another season.
"Truthful Trotter," Fitzgerald wrote.

Speaking at the PGA's Waste Management Open Pro-Am on Tuesday, Fitzgerald said he felt much better physically and had pretty much made up his mind on whether he would return, but wasn't ready to make it public.
The Cardinals still have not heard definitive word from quarterback Carson Palmer as to whether he will return.
The 33-year-old receiver has played 13 years in the NFL, missing just six games in his career.
He’s been one of the most consistent and reliable players in the league the past decade -- to the point he led the NFL in receptions for the second time in his career this season (107). Just last year, he had 109, proving he’s still incredibly productive.
