Marvin Harrison Jr. Showing Growth in Training Camp

Monday, August 17, 10:15 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. continues to show encouraging signs during his third training camp. Josh Weinfuss noted Monday that the Cardinals have seen growth from Harrison this summer, with the former fourth overall pick making some impressive catches and putting his natural talent on display. There have been flashes throughout camp, including a diving catch for more than 50 yards on a deep ball from Jacoby Brissett earlier this month. Harrison is coming off a difficult second season that was interrupted by several health issues. He finished 2025 with 41 catches for 608 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games while dealing with a concussion, appendicitis and heel problems along the way. His first two NFL seasons haven't produced the consistent numbers many expected when Arizona drafted him, but the talent has never really been the question. Harrison putting together stronger work this summer is a good sign as he looks to take a step forward in 2026.

Emeka Egbuka on Track to Be Ready for Week 1?

Friday, August 21, 12:45 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles characterized wide receiver Emeka Egbuka's (toe) status as "day-to-day or week-to-week," per Scott Reynolds of Pewter Report. Based on Bowles' wording and the fact that Egbuka is walking around the team's facility freely, Reynolds speculates that Egbuka "should be in play for Week 1." The 19th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Egbuka recorded 63 catches for 938 yards and six touchdowns on 127 targets across 17 games as a rookie. With longtime former Bucs wideout Mike Evans now in San Francisco, Egbuka has a chance to establish himself as the undisputed top option in the Tampa Bay passing game in 2026. While the 23-year-old's exact return timeline from his current toe injury remains unclear, it appears as though he's unlikely to miss significant regular-season time, if any at all. RotoBaller currently ranks Egbuka as the WR19 for redraft leagues entering 2026.
