Fitzgerald has good size at 6’2 175-pounds. Plays WR/FS for Denver Christian. Last season, he had 14 receptions for 327 yards with 3 touchdowns, 31 total tackles (15 solo, 16 assisted), 2 TFL, 2 INT, 1 FR, and 1 blocked punt. Good athletic ability due to very good speed, jumping, good change of direction and acceleration. Fitzgerald has good release against both off coverage and the press jam. Will use his speed to beat the DB to get open. Fitzgerald will also find an open void to exploit or come back to his QB during the scramble drill. Very good adjustment to the ball in flight. Good ball tracking, catching, and body control. He’ll use his big body to gain yards after the catch or use his burners to get into the endzone. With more opportunities in the passing game, look for him to shine.
Fitzgerald brings size and vertical playmaking ability to the receiver position, giving him a strong foundation for continued development. At 6’2, he has the frame to be a consistent redzone target while also stretching the field and getting behind the secondary. His ability to create big plays is evident, as he turned 14 receptions into 327 yards and three touchdowns. Fitzgerald’s production shows his raw talent and the potential for a breakout season. As last year’s leading receiver, he is expected to take on an expanded role and build chemistry with the returning starting quarterback. His ability to win downfield and capitalize on scoring opportunities adds value to his game. With increased targets and continued development, Fitzgerald is a prospect who could emerge as a stock riser on the small school circuit.
