2007 last week, told the Arizona Republic that he expects to play against the Falcons at 4:05 p.m. on Sunday at the Georgia Dome.

Fitzgerald didn’t play last week in a 19-3 loss to Seattle because of a sprained left MCL (knee) injury.

"I'm highly likely, but it's not my call, though," Fitzgerald told the Arizona Republic when asked to assess his availability.

Fitzgerald, an eight-time Pro Bowler, has 46 catches for 658 yards and two touchdowns this season.
