After four unproductive games with the Cardinals to start this season, wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. was traded to the Texans. After three games in Houston, Harrison remains unproductive.
Harrison had five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown with the Cardinals this season before he was traded, and he has six catches for 60 yards and one touchdown with the Texans since the trade.
While Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud was finding open receivers all over the field in Sunday’s win over the Chargers, Harrison was largely invisible. Stroud threw for 384 yards and five touchdowns; Harrison caught just two passes and was sixth on the team with 20 receiving yards, and he was not one of the four Texans receivers to catch a touchdown pass.
Two and a half seasons into his NFL career, Harrison has fallen far short of the hype that he had entering the NFL, as the son of a Hall of Fame wide receiver and the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. So far, a change of scenery hasn’t helped.
