Larry Fitzgerald is many things: World traveler. Philanthropist. Recent college graduate. And he's a pretty good football player on top of that.
During OTAs in Tempe on Tuesday, the Arizona Cardinals wide receiver and future Hall of Famer decided to see what it's like to wear yet another hat -- one that his father, sportswriter Larry Fitzgerald, Sr., has worn for almost 40 years.
Keeping a low profile, Fitzgerald inconspicuously blended in with media members at offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin's press conference and proceeded to listen intently and take notes alongside the reporters.

Moments later, Fitzgerald decided to slyly follow a reporter who was doing a one-on-one interview with Goodwin.

That was the extent of Fitz's experience on the opposite side of the media aisle Tuesday, as he later took questions from reporters and addressed the possibility of his retirement at the end of the season.
