Devin Fitzgerald, son of Larry Fitzgerald, commits to Notre Dame

Legendary receiver Larry Fitzgerald’s last NFL season was a mere five years ago, in 2020. Now, another Fitzgerald appears soon to follow in his footsteps after announcing his college commitment on Saturday, July 5.

Devin Fitzgerald, the son of Larry Fitzgerald, announced his commitment to Notre Dame via On3 and Rivals on Saturday. The three-star receiver in the 2026 class is ranked the No. 453 player nationally and No. 72 receiver, according to 247Sports’ Composite rankings.

Larry Fitzgerald, of course, starred at Pittsburgh, where he won the Biletnikoff Award and was the Heisman Trophy runner-up in 2003, a season in which he had 92 catches for 1,672 yards (18.2 yards per catch) and 22 touchdowns. He totaled 161 catches for 2,677 yards (16.6 ypc) and a Pitt-record 34 touchdowns across the 2002 and 2003 seasons with the Panthers.

He was the eventual No. 3 overall pick of the 2004 NFL Draft. He ended with the second-most receptions (1,432) in NFL history, only behind Jerry Rice, for 17,492 yards and 121 career touchdowns.

Devin Fitzgerald chose the Fighting Irish over Stanford, Clemson and UCLA, taking official visits to each. He also held offers from Pitt, Michigan, Florida State and Arizona.

The 6-foot-2 receiver attends Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix — where his father played the entirety of his NFL season for the Cardinals — and finished his junior season with 52 receptions for 720 yards with nine touchdowns, according to MaxPreps.

Notre Dame has put together quite the 2026 class, especially for those tracking the sons of former NFL standouts. The Fighting Irish have also garnered commitments from Kaydon Finley, son of Jermichael Finley, and Thomas Davis Jr., son of Thomas Davis Sr.

Notre Dame has the No. 4-ranked class in 2026, according to 247Sports’ Composite rankings. Devin Fitzgerald is the fourth receiver commitment of the class, joining Finley, Bubba Frazier and Dylan Faison.
