Roger Craig Jersey

The temperature was well into triple digits and sweat-soaked Larry Fitzgerald was still going full bore Roger Craig Jersey , hauling in passes from Sam Bradford and Josh Rosen.Entering his 15th season, with career receiving numbers among the best to have played the game, Fitzgerald is not talking about whether this year in the
NFL will be his last.
"I'm just trying to make it to February in one piece," he said after the team's second day of minicamp on Wednesday.
Fitzgerald, who will turn 35 before the season begins, has taken part in every voluntary session with the same competitive mindset he's always had. As
silly as it sounds, he said he plays like his job is on the line.
"When I say that I'm not saying it jokingly, that's the mentality that you have to have," he said. "All these guys, they're not bringing them in here for
their own health. They're bringing them here to give them the opportunity to
take your job. That's not lost on me ever. I'm fighting and competing just like
everybody else is."
New coach Steve Wilks treasures having someone like Fitzgerald to help the Cardinals transition into a new system with the retirement of Bruce Arians.
"His commitment to this team, to this organization is invaluable," Wilks said. "It means a lot to me as a first-year head coach, a guy like that who can
be an extension of you in the locker room, a true leader."
Fitzgerald is No. 1, with a lot of competition as to who will line up at the other receiver spots.
"The speed of the pack is determined by the speed of the leader Lance Kendricks Jersey ," Wilks said. "He's one of the leaders. Guys are going to fall in line with him. The younger receivers are going to take his
lead. It's great to have him out there. Not just being out there, but the way he
goes about his business."
Fitzgerald said Wilks asked him to be there during voluntary OTAs and was effusive in his praise of new receivers coach Kevin Garver, who was assistant
receivers coach in Arians' five seasons in Arizona.
Fitzgerald called Garver "one of the sharpest minds I've been around."
"I knew coach Wilks asked me early on to be here," Fitzgerald said. "And more so than that I wanted to start off on the right foot and make sure Kevin knew I
was in the fight with him from day one. I want to be successful for Kevin and I
knew in a few more years he'll be an offensive coordinator and a few years after
that he'll be a head coach. I want to make sure that I'm doing everything I can
while I can to help him elevate."
Fitzgerald has had a lot of quarterbacks throw him passes since he was drafted third overall by the Cardinals in 2004.
Now he's getting used to a new one in Bradford, who is being eased into workouts because he's coming off a knee injury.
Fitzgerald said the two are still learning each other, as is expected.
"That comes through repetition," Fitzgerald said. "The same thing with Kurt Warner when he first got here and with Carson (Palmer) six years ago when he got
here. It takes a little time but once two veterans are able to learn each other
it makes it a lot easier."
With Bradford watching much of the time, Fitzgerald has caught a lot of balls from the rookie Rosen.
"I'm really impressed with how Josh has been able to grasp everything," Fitzgerald said.
Star running back David Johnson was absent again Wednesday in an apparent contract holdout.
Fitzgerald wouldn't say much about that but hinted at his support for the player.
"I don't know the details of it, honestly," Fitzgerald said. "I don't know anything that's going on. But I'm always for my teammates. I love my guys. I'll
just leave it at that."
Fitzgerald is a well-documented world traveler. After the final minicamp session on Thursday, he and cornerback Patrick Peterson, a fellow avid golfer,
are headed off together.
"We'll be over in St. Andrews playing some golf," he said. "We're going to have a good time. It's Pat's first time Marwin Evans Jersey , so I want to beat him at the oldest golf course in the world."
Who's paying for the trip? At least indirectly, Fitzgerald said, Peterson is.
"Pat's paying for the trip after all the money I've taken from him this offseason," he said. "I'm appreciative of that."

DETROIT (AP) — Sam Darnold rolled right and made a rookie move, lobbing a football across the field that was picked off and returned for a touchdown.
It might’ve been his only mistake all night.
Darnold made a stellar debut after throwing a pick-6 on his first NFL snap, and the New York Jets intercepted five passes and also scored on special teams
in a 48-17 rout over the Detroit Lions on Monday night.
The 21-year-old Darnold became the youngest quarterback to start a season opener since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, and looked his age on the first play.
“Licking my chops a little bit too much, I think, on that play,” he said
Quandre Diggs intercepted his ill-advised pass and returned it 37 yards for a touchdown 20 seconds into the game.
“On that interception, I was pretty nervous,” Darnold said. “After that, I put it behind me.”
The former USC star, drafted No. 3 overall, shook off the nerves and finished 16 of 21 for 198 yards and two touchdowns . He is the first quarterback to win
his first start by 31 or more points since Tom Brady in 2001 Brandon Carr Jersey , per ESPN Stats & Info.
“He didn’t flinch,” Jets coach Todd Bowles said. “He didn’t even blink.”
Darnold helped the Jets set a franchise record for points on the road, surpassing the 47 they scored in 1967 against the Boston Patriots.
He also outplayed 30-year-old Matthew Stafford.
Stafford threw four interceptions — one shy of his career high — and left the game briefly in the third quarter after being hit from the front and back by the
swarming, hard-hitting Jets.
“We wanted to make sure we came out and made a statement in this game,” New York linebacker Darron Lee said.
Stafford was 27 of 46 for 286 yards and a TD pass to Golden Tate early in the third quarter to tie it at 17. He was mercifully taken out midway through the
fourth quarter and replaced by Matt Cassel with Detroit down 31.
“Story of the game’s turnovers, you know?” he asked. “We had too many of them, I had too many of them.”
The Jets dominated in all phases.
They scored 31 straight in the third quarter to pull away, sending Detroit’s fans for the exits and setting off a jolly green party in the Motor City. It was
the highest-scoring third quarter in team history and trailed only the 34-point
second quarter the Brett Favre-led team scored in 2008 against Arizona.
New York scored on the ground and through the air, on defense and on a punt return by former Lion Andre Roberts. The Jets could’ve piled on even more in the
final minutes but turned the ball over on downs after kneeling to take time off
the clock. Darnold flipped the ball to a referee after the final kneel down, and
the official gave it right back before shaking the rookie’s hand. Darnold was
still holding the ball while talking briefly with Stafford on the field.
Detroit coach Matt Patricia, meanwhile, will want to forget his debut as an NFL head coach.
“We’ve got to coach this a lot better than what we did,” he said. “We’ve got to go out and execute a lot better on the field. It’s a team game, and it starts
with me.”
New NFL head coaches dropped to 0-6 in Week 1, with Oakland’s Jon Gruden the group’s final hope for an opening victory in the Monday nightcap.
ROADIES
Late in the game Marcus Cannon Jersey , just before Cassel threw an interception, hundreds of New York fans chanted: “J-E-T-S, JETS! JETS! JETS!” A crew clad in green and
white filed into seats in four sections along the New York sideline and appeared
to outnumber Detroit fans who stuck around for the bitter end.
“That was awesome to be able to see them doing their thing,” Darnold said.
STREAK STOPPED
The Jets had played an NFL record 73 games, dating to 2013, without a defensive TD before Lee returned one of his two interceptions 36 yards for a
score in the third. Trumaine Johnson, Morris Claiborne and Jamal Adams also
picked off passes in a strong start for the Jets self-proclaimed “New Jack City”
secondary.
THREE’S COMPANY
Darnold joined Tampa Bay’s Jameis Winston (2015) and Brett Favre (1991) as quarterbacks who had their first pass intercepted and returned for a score.
INJURIES
Jets: CB Johnson (head injury) and CB Buster Skrine (rib) returned to play after leaving the field with injuries. Johnson was evaluated after he
intercepted a pass and fumbled after taking a hard hit from Detroit receiver
Kenny Golladay.
Lions: DE Ezekiel Ansah, who has struggled to get and stay healthy, left the game with a shoulder after making four tackles, including a sack. OG T.J. Lang
left the game with a back injury. CB Darius Slay returned to play after leaving
the field to be evaluated for a concussion.
UP NEXT
Jets: Host the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.
Lions: Visit the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
