Larry Fitzgerald WR ARZ
The Arizona Republic reports Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald said it's going to take some time building chemistry with new starting QB Kevin Kolb. “You look at the prolific tandems of quarterback and receiver, those guys have been together usually a long time,” Fitzgerald said. “You look at Peyton (Manning) and Reggie Wayne, they’ve been together 10 years. They know exactly what each other’s doing. Andre Johnson and Matt Schaub (of Houston) have been together five, six years. They know each other’s body mechanics and thinking. It takes time to get that but the more work you do on the practice field, the faster you can get that chemistry.” Kolb said he is sitting next to Fitzgerald in team meetings trying to pick his brain. Kolb is happy to have a receiver of Fitzgerald's caliber at his disposal. “I’ve been here for what, 48 hours? And I’m already expecting when the ball goes up he’s going to make the catch every time. It’s almost unfair to him, you know?” Kolb said.

Mike Wallace, WR PIT
News: Steelers WR Mike Wallace did not practice Tuesday due to what coach Mike Tomlin said was a tight groin. "We wanted to exercise a little precaution and stay ahead of a fatigue curve with him, so we gave him a day," Tomlin said. Wallace himself downplayed not practicing. "Just a day off," he said.
