As first reported on his own website, Larry Fitzgerald has restructured his contract with the Arizona Cardinals. The new deal is reportedly worth $40 million over four years, with $30 million guaranteed. Fitzgerald will hit the free agent market at the ripe old age of 28.
For the Cardinals, this means some much-needed cap relief. Fitzgeralds cap number will go from a whopping $16,485,000 to a manageable $7,643,334. This still doesn't help Arizona as far as bringing in free agents, as most of them are gone.
