Start Sit Larry Fitzgerald

Stephania Bell's Week 15 injury report: Fitzgerald, Vikes WRs iffy - ESPN:

"Larry Fitzgerald, Arizona Cardinals, (Q): Fitzgerald's Monday night injury was not as serious as it originally appeared, and the Cardinals, along with Fitzgerald's fantasy owners, have to be relieved. Fitzgerald was back in practice on a limited basis all week and the biggest challenge the Cardinals faced was holding him back. Fitzgerald wants to play Sunday; it will be a medical decision as to whether he looks good enough in pregame warm-ups to go. There is the issue of playing on turf that might factor into how concerned the team is about Fitzgerald's being out there. Be sure to check the inactive list before kickoff but it looks like the Detroit Lions may have yet another reason to be nervous."

The semi-finals of the fantasy football play-offs and Fitzgerald offers yet another reason why so many hate the format - a juicy match-up where a star can disappoint thanks to injury.
