Arizona Cardinals star wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald is suffering from a “minor” MCL sprain, according to head coach Bruce Arians. Having missed two games in 2014 with the same injury, there is always a possibility that his injury may continue into the start of the regular season. Fitzgerald is currently listed as day-to-day.

After missing practice this past week, Larry Fitzgerald missed the Week 2 preseason game against the San Diego Chargers to avoid any risk of further injury. His progress will continue to be monitored through the remainder of the preseason. He may see limited time going forward for precautionary reasons.
Fantasy Implications: While this injury will surely be monitored closely by fantasy owners, Larry Fitzgerald’s minor injury should be nothing to worry about long term. Fitzgerald will still be a great long term option for the WR2 or Flex position, particularly in a PPR league.
