WIP's Howard Eskin talked to Larry Fitzgerald yesterday and the Cardinals WR had some interesting, albeit not earth shattering stuff to say...
Howard told him how crazy Eagles fans are for a WR and asked if he’d requested out of Arizona.
"No I haven’t requested, I love Arizona I love playing here, but who couldn’t be excited about playing with a great running back like Brian Westbrook who takes a knee on the goal line? Unselfish guys like that, McNabb. They got a lot of good players out there. But I’m here in Arizona I’m under contract for 2 more years and I’m happy here."
Howard also asked him if he was traded whether the Eagles would be one of his top 4 teams, he said yes. Fitzgerald said he was sick of sitting at home and watching other guys in the playoffs and he would like to be with a team like the Eagles who are in the playoffs every year.
Howard also said that he was told by Javon Walker’s agent that the Eagles had a deal worked out with him for $7.5 million a year but Green Bay wouldn’t trade him inside the NFC for less than a 1st round pick. Kind of interesting…
