2009 - Sustaining Greatness | Coming off his historic 2008 playoff run, Larry Fitzgerald continued to dominate in 2009, finishing the regular season with 97 receptions for 1,092 yards and a career-best 13 touchdown catches. He became the first player in Cardinals franchise history to record at least 10 receiving touchdowns in three consecutive seasons, underlining his extraordinary consistency in the red zone. The Cardinals returned to the playoffs, and Fitzgerald added another 13 receptions for 149 yards and two touchdowns in two postseason games. Though the Cardinals Super Bowl hopes ended in the divisional round of the playoffs, Fitzgerald showed that his performance was no one-season phenomenon as he remained one of football’s most dangerous and dependable playmakers.
