The Facts:
Fitzgerald made several spectacular catches that led to the Cardinals' 23-20 overtime win over the Seahawks. He did it all with a bruised lung. "After the game, we checked him out, and he did have a bruise on his lung," HC Ken Whisenhunt said. "It wasn't something considered serious."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Maybe not, but Beanie Wells confirmed Fitzgerald was coughing up blood on the sideline after the hit. ... Fitzgerald took a shot during the third quarter and was initially evaluated on the sideline for a concussion. He finished with nine receptions for 149 yards. Given the way Fitzgerald finished, Whisenhunt said it was "obviously" the right decision. Fitzgerald, who didn't mention the injury during his postgame news conference, was examined again Monday and determined to be fine. And very tough.
