Devin Fitzgerald, the son of legendary Arizona Cardinals player Larry Fitzgerald, is making a name for himself on the football field, showing that he is carving out his own path in the sport.
As a junior wide receiver for the Brophy Broncos, Devin Fitzgerald is gaining attention not just because of his famous last name but also because of his impressive skills. In a recent game against Williams Field, Fitzgerald made a critical play by catching the game-winning touchdown with no time left on the clock.
Reflecting on his performance, Fitzgerald credited his hard work during the off-season, the support of his teammates, and the rigorous training provided by his coach for his success. Despite the thrill of victory, he acknowledged that they should not have let the game get so close.
One of the most memorable moments for Fitzgerald was having his dad in the stands to witness his game-winning play. The support and guidance from his father have been invaluable to his development as a player.
While Devin hopes to emulate his father’s success in the NFL, he is determined to prove that his talent goes beyond his family name. He emphasizes the importance of carving his own path and acknowledges the lessons and skills his father has passed down to him over the years.
Although Devin did not score in the team’s subsequent game against Regis Jesuit, he values the presence and support of his dad, Larry, who watches every snap like any other proud parent in the crowd.
Devin’s story is a testament to his commitment to excellence and his drive to stand out on his own merits, separate from his father’s legacy in the sport.
