FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The injury to receiver Larry Fitzgerald should give Stephen Williams more opportunities to show what he can do for the Arizona Cardinals.
Not that he hasn’t been noticed already.
Without question, the undrafted rookie wide receiver from Toledo has been one of the major surprises of the team’s training camp, making one big catch after another in practice and emerging as perhaps the leading candidate for the No. 4 receiver spot behind Fitzgerald, Steve Breaston and Early Doucet.
Most recently, it was a long catch from Matt Leinart in the corner of the end zone with the defender right on him in practice on Tuesday afternoon.
Coach Ken Whisenhunt says what has stood out most has been the consistency with which Williams has made those big plays.
