Wed, 28 Jan 2009 05:56:31 -0800

Kent Somers, of The Arizona Republic, reports even though Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald has reportedly offered to restructure his deal to help keep WR Anquan Boldin, cap space is not the problem in retaining Boldin. The Cardinals are about $41 million under the 2009 salary cap, even though team officials said that number does not include escalator clauses, option bonuses and tenders to free agents, most of which begin to count against the cap in March. The main obstacle in a new deal with Boldin is money, especially the guaranteed portions. The sides haven't negotiated for months, and Boldin has said he won't re-sign with the team.

Cardinals | Fitzgerald playing lighter this season
Tue, 27 Jan 2009 05:12:49 -0800

Bob McManaman and Kent Somers, of The Arizona Republic, reports Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald is playing at a weight of 213 pounds, down from 228 pounds last season. Fitzgerald made losing weight a goal in the offseason, because he thought it would help his quickness and speed. Fitzgerald's lighter weight is one reason he's improved at running after the catch this season. "I'm definitely able to sustain my speed a lot longer," Fitzgerald said. "My endurance is better. I can run down the field repeatedly and I don't get winded. I think a lot of that is a tribute to John Lott (strength and conditioning coach)."
