Marvin Harrison Jr.’s Arizona Cardinals career is over.
The Cardinals have preliminarily agreed to trade Harrison, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The destination is unknown, but Schefter suggested the Houston Texans, who need help at wide receiver, are a real possibility.
One team that has had Marvin Harrison trade talks with Arizona is Houston, sources tell me and @rapsheet. Houston has been, and is thought to be, square in the mix for Harrison. But as one Texans source said about the team’s interest in Harrison, “I can’t confirm or deny at this time.”

Despite rumors linking the Indianapolis Colts to a Harrison trade, they do not appear to be the landing spot.
Per source, Marv Jr isn’t heading to Indy. like just about every team, Colts did due diligence but that’s all. Prob decided price too steep. imo bringing Marv Jr to Indy would have brought unrealistic expectations, pressure.

The Harrison situation escalated quickly after his very slow start to the season. The Cardinals drafted him fourth overall in the 2024 NFL Draft, but he never met expectations and has just 1,578 receiving yards over parts of three seasons to date. This year has been his worst, with just five catches in his first four games.
Harrison was a massive talent at Ohio State and was heralded as one of the top wide receiver prospects in recent memory. Perhaps a change of scenery will help him, as many insiders have seen this coming for a while.
