Who Should I Start? Marvin Harrison Jr. or Ricky Pearsall

Saturday, October 18, 11:15 AM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. cleared the NFL's concussion protocol just in time to practice Friday and be removed from the injury report. He was only able to play in 23% of the team's snaps in Week 6, which led to just the two targets, two catches, and 32 yards. Week 7 carries uncertainty yet again as Kyler Murray (foot) remains questionable, with Jacoby Brissett waiting for the call to go under center. Harrison and Murray still haven't fully clicked, so having Brissett under center may not necessarily be a bad thing. The Green Bay Packers have given up at least one receiving touchdown in all but one of their games, so Harrison could find some room to break free, but they're around the middle of the league in terms of defending the pass. Harrison is a solid flex play, but his ceiling is a bit limited right now.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) was unable to practice this week and has officially been ruled out for the Week 7 contest on Sunday Night Football against the Atlanta Falcons, according to The Athletic's Matt Barrows. The 25-year-old is dealing with a PCL injury in his right knee and will miss his third straight game. It's unclear if he'll be in play to make his return next week when the Niners travel to Houston to face off against the Texans. In the meantime, the banged-up Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne will serve as quarterback Mac Jones' top receivers, with Brock Purdy (toe) also missing yet another contest. The 49ers could be getting tight end George Kittle (hamstring) back from Injured Reserve this weekend, but that remains up in the air. Pearsall's fantasy stock is floundering due to his injury, and targets might be a lot harder to come by whenever he finally makes it back.
