Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald weighs 218 pounds. Cards offensive lineman Earl Watford weighs 300.
There's no excuse for this, Earl.
In the third quarter of the Cardinals' game against the 49ers on Thursday night, Fitzgerald caught his second touchdown of the game and decided to celebrate with Watford, who also happens to be the self-proclaimed best Pokémon Go player on the team.
Fitz then went to celebrate with his teammate... and this happened.

Naturally, Watford got ribbed by his teammates for it.

@LarryFitzgerald made me look silly. Haha Oh well. We will meet again in the endzone. Got the dubya.

It's funny until you realize the Cardinals had already lost two of their offensive linemen (Evan Mathis and Mike Iupati) to injuries Thursday night. Fortunately, the Cards' resident Pokémon wizard is OK and will hopefully be celebrating another Fitz TD soon.
