Marvin Harrison Jr. Ruled Out for Remainder of Week 6 Due to Concussion

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) has officially been ruled out for the remainder of his team's Week 6 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts due to a concussion, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Harrison Jr. recorded two catches for 32 yards on two targets before leaving the game. With Harrison Jr. sidelined, Cardinals wideouts Michael Wilson, Zay Jones, and Greg Dortch will all likely see an uptick in both playing time and target share. Arizona tight end Trey McBride could see a few extra targets go his way as well.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (undisclosed) has been taken to the locker room after being checked out in the blue medical tent during the first half of his team's Week 6 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Harrison Jr. appeared to have possibly suffered a head injury, but the exact nature of his absence has not yet been disclosed. Harrison Jr. recorded two catches for 32 yards on two targets before getting injured. If he is unable to return in Week 6, Cardinals wideouts Michael Wilson, Zay Jones, and Greg Dortch are all candidates to see an uptick in both playing time and targets.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Hovering Around WR2 Value Against Colts

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has had his fair share of issues with drops so far this season, but he seems to be trending in a better direction over the last two weeks. He registered finishes of WR21 and WR14 in half-PPR formats against the Tennessee Titans and Seattle Seahawks. The coaches even talked about getting Harrison some more targets moving forward. On the flip side, Kyler Murray (foot) is considered questionable, so Brissett may be under center. Usually, backup quarterbacks target their number-one receiver more often, so that could play into Harrison's favor. With that being said, he's currently projected as a low-end WR2 with a higher ceiling since the Indianapolis Colts are ranked 28th against opposing receiver groups, giving up 38.02 fantasy points per outing.

More Targets Coming for Marvin Harrison Jr.?

After rewatching the tape of the Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, Arizona Cardinals offensive coordinator Drew Petzing said he felt like he didn't do enough to get wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. the ball down the stretch, according to Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. "Going back and looking at it, I think there's maybe a couple of things I could've done differently," Petzing said. Harrison had only five targets on the day, which tied for a season low, but he caught four of them to finish two yards shy of the century mark for the first time in 2025. He caught a season-high six passes on 10 targets in Week 4 for 66 yards and his second touchdown of the year. The 23-year-old former first-rounder nearly had a 44-yard TD early in the game on Sunday and did most of his damage in the first half before Arizona's offense sat on their lead after halftime. Look for Arizona to feature Harrison early and often in Week 6 on the road against the Indianapolis Colts.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Looking to Build Off Encouraging Week 4 Performance in Week 5

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. rode a big second half to his best performance of the season in Week 4, recording six catches for 66 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets against the Seattle Seahawks. The talented 23-year-old has logged 16 receptions for 208 yards and two scores across his first four games of 2025. Harrison Jr. will look to build off of his encouraging Week 4 in a Week 5 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Heading into Sunday, Tennessee ranks in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.4). Harrison Jr. profiles as a low-end fantasy WR2 in Week 5.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Avenges Ugly First Half, Delivers Best Finish of Season

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. caught six of his 10 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown during Thursday's Week 4 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The former first-round pick had a very poor showing in the first half as he caught just one pass. Furthermore, he appeared to give up on a play that resulted in an interception, and a different target intended for him later in the half resulted in a second interception. He cleaned things up in the second half, though, helping Arizona mount a comeback effort before ultimately falling on a last-second field goal. Harrison bounced back enough to deliver 18.6 fantasy points (PPR), setting a new season high. He'll look to carry this momentum into next week's game against the struggling Tennessee Titans.

Marvin Harrison Jr. has Another Tough Matchup in Week 4

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has turned in back-to-back disappointing performances that included some big drops, which could have led to points. It appears that the reports about the improved chemistry between Harrison and Kyler Murray have been largely unfounded so far. He currently has a drop percentage of 11.8% compared to 4.3% in his rookie season, but Murray's passer rating is 105.5 when targeting Harrison compared to 87.0 last year. Week 4's matchup with the Seattle Seahawks doesn't provide any easier ways to put up fantasy points, though. Josh Jobe is likely to line up across from Harrison, and he's only allowed a catch rate of 45% with just 3.3 yards per target allowed as well. Harrison has a WR2 ceiling, but realistically hovers around the high-end WR3 area until he proves to be more consistent.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Looking to Bounce Back in Week 3

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has had plenty of ups and downs throughout his short NFL career so far. It definitely didn't give any fantasy managers a warm and fuzzy feeling when Kyler Murray shrugged off a question about getting Harrison more targets by saying, "Some days he's gonna get 10, and some days he might get 3." In Week 3, the duo goes up against a better defense than they've played so far in the San Francisco 49ers. If the reports from the offseason are true about these two building more chemistry, it would be great to see it come to fruition. In the meantime, Harrison hovers around a mid-to-low-end WR2 until proven otherwise.

Marvin Harrison Jr. to Continue to be Up and Down for Fantasy Managers?

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray didn't exactly ease fantasy managers' concerns regarding second-year wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. when talking to the media on Wednesday. "There's only one ball. We've been playing this game for a long time. Some days he's gonna get 10, and some days he might get 3. You never know," Murray said when asked if he felt Harrison should have more targets through two weeks. Harrison and Murray supposedly improved their chemistry in the offseason, but through two games, we have yet to see it. The 23-year-old former fourth overall pick is tied for 49th among WRs with 11 targets through two games and has caught seven of them for 98 yards and a touchdown. It might take Harrison a bit more time to reach his true potential, but fantasy managers will be hoping he'll rebound in a divisional matchup this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Needs to be More Involved for Cardinals Offense

While Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said he's not concerned about the amount of targets that second-year wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. gets, he knows that his being involved is what is best for the offense. "I know he's got to touch the football for our offense to play at its premium," Gannon said. Harrison had five catches on six targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 win over the New Orleans Saints, but he caught only two of five targets for 27 yards in the Week 2 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The Cardinals got out to a big early lead and took their foot off the gas pedal in an eventual 27-22 win, so Harrison wasn't really needed. Harrison and quarterback Kyler Murray reportedly worked on their chemistry this offseason, but it hasn't looked great through two games. Fantasy managers will be expecting a bounce-back game in Week 3 against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Holds High-Level WR2 Value in Week 2

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. delivered a WR10 finish in half-PPR leagues against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1. Many expect the second-year wideout to break out after he failed to reach some lofty expectations in his rookie season. While Trey McBride still commands more targets, Harrison wasn't too far behind. The Carolina Panthers don't present much of a threat defensively in Week 2, so there should be room in the passing game for Harrison to replicate what he did in their last game. While the game script will likely lean towards the ground game since the Panthers gave up 200 yards to the Jacksonville Jaguars, fantasy managers can look to Harrison as a WR2.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Records Touchdown Grab in Week 1 Victory

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. recorded five catches on six targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in his team's 20-13 Week 1 victory over the New Orleans Saints. Harrison Jr. led Arizona in receiving yards, but was out-targeted by his teammate, star tight end Trey McBride (nine). Entering his second season, Harrison Jr. is expected to take a leap after posting modest numbers (relative to expectations) as a rookie in 2024. The touchdown grab is obviously a positive sign, but Harrison Jr.'s 20.7% target share in Week 1 is lower than fantasy managers should be hoping for.

Marvin Harrison Jr. a High-End WR2 Against Saints

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. entered his rookie year in 2024 with insane expectations as his ADP in fantasy drafts was a late first-round pick. If that price tag weren't so high, a rookie year with 62 receptions, 885 yards, and eight touchdowns on 116 targets would probably have been a little more appreciated. His connection with Kyler Murray was very disjointed in that first season as well, but that seems to be changing heading into his second season. Harrison and Murray looked like they were on the same page through joint practices and training camp, and the former fourth-overall pick put on around 10 pounds of muscle. Against a lower-level defense like the New Orleans Saints in Week 1, this is Harrison's chance to start off with a bang. RotoBaller's projections have him sitting around WR20 in Week 1, but he carries some big upside if he does take that second year leap.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Snags One Catch Against Chiefs

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. carried incredibly high expectations entering his rookie season, and in some ways, failed to reach those lofty goals. Now, entering his second season, he's looking to build some better chemistry with Kyler Murray and connect more often. In their first preseason game on Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, Harrison caught one of his two targets for 15 yards early in the first quarter. His only other target was a terrible throw from Murray that ended in an interception. There wasn't too much to gather from this showing, but Harrison remains the WR1 and likely will benefit from having a full offseason to prepare.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Back at Practice

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (knee) was back at the team's training camp practice on Tuesday while wearing a sleeve on his left leg, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. Harrison returns after missing three practices with a sore knee. The Cardinals plan to play some of their starters for the first preseason game this Saturday against the Kansas City Chiefs, but Harrison could be held out as a precaution. The 22-year-old former fourth overall pick last year out of Ohio State didn't exactly live up to his high draft stock in fantasy football in Year 1, but he still finished with a 62-885-8 line in 17 games (16 starts) in his first year in the league. If the added muscle and strength that Harrison added this offseason can help him be more of a threat after the catch, he could very easily improve on last year's numbers as Arizona's WR1.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Misses Second Straight Practice

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (knee) is missing his second consecutive practice on Friday due to knee soreness, according to Tyler Drake of AZ Sports. The second-year wide receiver's injury is not viewed as serious, but it's one to monitor to see how much time he ends up missing. Harrison Jr. added weight over the offseason after a relatively disappointing rookie year that saw him record 62 catches for 885 yards and eight touchdowns in 17 games. Building chemistry with Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is critical for Harrison Jr., as the two often appeared out of sync in 2024. The 22-year-old is being drafted as a WR2 in fantasy, which is significantly higher than where he finished last season.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Sitting Out of Thursday's Practice

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (knee) is not practicing on Thursday due to knee soreness, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. The injury is not viewed as serious, and Harrison is day-to-day. While key players missing practice time is never ideal, this sounds like a non-issue for the Ohio State product's fantasy football outlook. Last season, expectations were sky high for the son of a Hall of Fame wide receiver, so his 62-catch, 885-yard, eight-touchdown season was viewed as a letdown by many. However, the 22-year-old has reportedly bulked up this offseason, and he'll have another year of chemistry with quarterback Kyler Murray in 2025. Harrison Jr. carries a mid-range WR2 price tag into preseason drafts, but there is a real possibility he's locked behind tight end Trey McBride as the No. 2 option in the passing game.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Up to 220 Pounds

PHNX Sports' Bo Brack reports that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is listed at 220 pounds at training camp this year on the team's latest roster after last being listed at 209 pounds. It was reportedly earlier this offseason that Harrison appeared to have bulked up, and now we know how much. The 22-year-old from Ohio State had some pretty high expectations placed on him in his first NFL season after being taken fourth overall by the Cardinals. He might not have lived up to most folks' expectations in Year 1, but he still provided 62 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns in 17 games (16 starts) in his rookie campaign. The Cardinals are expecting Harrison to be even better in Year 2, and adding muscle will certainly help him win more downfield. Fantasy managers should target him as a WR2 with upside if he takes the next step.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Expected to Make Second-Year Jump

The Athletic's Doug Haller reports that the Arizona Cardinals expect second-year wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. to take the next step in 2025. Aside from the muscle that the Ohio State product added to his frame, quarterback Kyler Murray noted that he's operating with a different level of comfort and confidence thus far in his second year. Objectively, Harrison Jr.'s rookie campaign was by no means a failure. However, with the sky-high expectations put forth upon him, it certainly felt that way. More so, considering fellow rookie wideout Malik Nabers exploded onto the scene in a worse offense. The 22-year-old figured to improve in his second season anyway. Arizona gassing him up only makes him more intriguing in the first few rounds of drafts.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Confident in Cardinals Offense

Arizona Cardinals second-year wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., who bulked up and added muscle to his frame this offseason, said he's confident in what the Cardinals offense can do in 2025. "I'm very confident in what we have offensively," Harrison said. "From top to bottom, the quarterback, offensive line, skill positions, I think we have everything we need to accomplish our goals." The 22-year-old fourth overall pick last year finished his rookie campaign with 62 catches, 885 yards and eight touchdowns, ranking fifth in receiving yards for a rookie. Harrison said he has spent plenty of time with quarterback Kyler Murray outside the facility as he continues to gain chemistry with him. Fantasy managers that draft him in 2025 will be hoping that his added strength will make him more of a contributor after the catch. Although his rookie year didn't live up to expectations, Harrison could easily take the next step in 2025.
