Listed at 6-foot-2, 185 pounds, Fitzgerald is currently unranked in the class of 2026 according to 247Sports. He holds other top offers from Arizona, Pittsburgh and Washington State.

He attends Brophy College Preparatory High School in Phoenix, Arizona, the same school as the son of Darren Sharper, who was also offered by the Gophers on Saturday. Fitzgerald had 15 catches for 175 yards and two touchdowns last season as a sophomore.

The 2026 recruiting cycle is far from heating up, but the Gophers have now identified Sharper and Fitzgerald as two targets at wide receiver in the class.
