Larry Fitzgerald to Receive Rare Honor From Cardinals in 2026
After going into the Hall of Fame, Larry Fitzgerald will receive a special honor from the Cardinals during the 2026 NFL season.
Larry Fitzgerald, widely regarded as one of the greatest wide receivers in NFL history, has been honored by the Arizona Cardinals in a rare gesture. Over the weekend, Fitzgerald was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame alongside Drew Brees, Adam Vinatieri, and Luke Kuechly. Now, the Cardinals have announced that they will retire his No. 11 jersey and induct him into the team's Ring of Honor on Sunday, Oct.
25, during their Week 7 game against the Denver Broncos in 2026. This makes Fitzgerald the sixth former Cardinals player to have his number retired and the 20th member of the team's Ring of Honor, joining other franchise legends like Carson Palmer, Pat Tillman, and Kurt Warner.
