Who Should I Start? Demarcus Robinson or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Saturday, November 22, 5:55 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson saw little change in his utilisation in the wake of Ricky Pearsall's (knee) return in Week 11. Robinson's snap share has hovered around 25% for most of the season, and that trend continued in the 49ers' 41-22 win over the Cardinals when Robinson checked in for 26% of the team's offensive snaps. Another trend that continued was his limited involvement when he was on the field, as he saw just one target that he caught for a 13-yard gain. Through eight games, Robinson now has 12 receptions for 155 yards and no touchdowns on 22 targets. Despite the 49ers' offense missing Pearsall, Jauan Jennings, and George Kittle for multiple weeks due to injuries, Robinson never found a way to make an impact. Now that all three are sharing the field, Robinson stands little chance of being a dependable fantasy contributor and is a risky bet in Week 12.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) was limited in his return to practice on Wednesday, per AZCardinals.com's Darren Urban. Harrison had an appendectomy following the team's Week 10 game, and he's missed the last two games as a result. Although nothing is official yet, the 23-year-old second-year wideout could be on track to return in Week 13 on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if he's able to upgrade to a full practice on Thursday or Friday. It's good news for his fantasy managers, although there have been indications that Harrison could take a back seat to Michael Wilson, who has a whopping 25 catches on 33 targets for 303 yards the last two weeks, when he returns. Although Harrison has been better since quarterback Jacoby Brissett took over the offense, he still has yet to live up to his draft status of fourth overall in 2024.
