Harrison won't return to Sunday's game at Indianapolis due to a concussion.
Harrison banged the back of his helmet hard on the turf as he corralled a 21-yard catch in the middle of the second quarter that required a concussion check. Now that he's in the protocol for head injuries, he'll be subject to league protocol in order to be eligible for further game action. The Cardinals will roll with Michael Wilson (finger), Zay Jones, Greg Dortch and Simi Fehoko at wide receiver for the rest of Sunday's contest.
Harrison is undergoing a concussion check during Sunday's contest in Indianapolis.
As Harrison hauled in a 21-yard catch in the middle of the second quarter, his helmet appeared to hit the turf hard, which necessitated the second-year wide receiver visiting the sideline tent and then the locker room. If he's eventually diagnosed with a concussion, he'll finish Week 6 with two receptions (on two targets) for 32 yards.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Building positive performances
Rotowire
Harrison recorded four receptions on five targets for 98 yards in Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Titans.
Harrison got off to a remarkable start to the game, leaping over a pair of defenders for what initially appeared to be a 44-yard touchdown on Arizona's opening drive. He was ruled down at the one after review, though it was still his second catch of at least 40 yards this season. Harrison then recorded gains of 20 and 16 yards on Arizona's next drive, before largely disappearing from the game plan as the Cardinals got very conservative on offense. While the performance was nearly much bigger from a fantasy perspective, Harrison is starting to stack together positive showings after delivering 66 yards and a touchdown in Week 4.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison Jr.: WRs to Start
Rotowire
Harrison just had his best game of the season in Week 4 against Seattle with six catches for 66 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. We hope he continues to get that much volume, and Harrison is capable of big outings on a weekly basis. That should happen again in Week 5 against the Titans, who are No. 6 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers. Four receivers have scored at least 18.1 PPR points against Tennessee this season, and I like Harrison as a solid No. 2 Fantasy receiver in this matchup.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Leading receiver on six targets
Rotowire
Harrison brought in three of six targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 16-15 loss to the 49ers.
Harrison wound up leading Arizona with 44 receiving yards in a game during which the team generated just 159 yards of offense through the air. The sophomore receiver suffered an uncharacteristic drop on a wide-open deep shot from Kyler Murray that could have resulted in a lengthy touchdown. Harrison continues to flash potential, only to disappear at times like he did against Carolina last week (2-27-0). The high-pedigree receiver should be treated as a boom-or-bust play against the Seahawks on Thursday.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Finds end zone against Saints
Rotowire
Harrison caught five of six targets for a team-high 71 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over New Orleans.
The second-year wideout hauled in Kyler Murray's longest completion of the day with a 45-yard gain in the second quarter, and Harrison capped that drive with a one-yard TD reception. While he didn't see typical WR1 volume, Harrison's chemistry with Murray bodes very well for the prospects of a 2025 breakout for the fourth overall pick in the 2024 Draft. Harrison will look to build on this performance in Week 2 at home against the Panthers.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Better rapport with Murray
Rotowire
Harrison and Kyler Murray are operating with a greater rapport ahead of the 2025 season, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
After hooking up with Murray for a 15-yard catch in the preseason opener versus Kansas City, Harrison and the rest of the Cardinals' No. 1 offense sat out this past Saturday's game against Denver. Murray and Harrison connected on a number of passes against a tough Broncos secondary in a joint practice, however. Harrison is looking to build upon a 62-885-8 line on 116 targets over 17 regular-season games as a rookie, and the fourth overall pick in the 2024 Draft seems poised to break out based on early returns in training camp and the exhibition schedule.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Bulks up over offseason
Rotowire
Harrison reported to training camp Wednesday at 220 pounds, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official website reports.
Harrison entered the NFL at 209 pounds but spent the offseason bulking up and focusing on his diet. The No. 4 overall pick of the 2024 Draft, Harrison had a fine rookie season, posting a 62-885-8 receiving line on 116 targets, but his efficiency clearly was lacking some. He caught just 54.4 percent of his targets, ranking 102nd out of 112 qualifying wide receivers in catch percentage. His average depth of target of 14.2 yards was 14th-highest, which helps explain some of that lack of efficiency. The Cardinals hope to do a better job of getting Harrison easier catches at all levels of the field in 2025.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Cardinals anticipating Year 2 leap
Rotowire
Arizona's coaching staff expects Harrison to take a substantial step forward in 2025 after his uneven rookie season, Doug Haller of The Athletic reports.
Harrison has reportedly bulked up noticeably this offseason, a development that will hopefully help the No. 4 overall pick of the 2024 Draft improve in contested-catch situations in Year 2. Despite suiting up for all 17 regular-season games as a rookie and acting as the Cardinals' top wide receiver, Harrison managed just a 62-885-8 line on 116 targets, finishing as a distant second in pass-catching production compared to TE Trey McBride. QB Kyler Murray said at mandatory minicamp that he's observed improved confidence from Harrison, who will turn 23 in August. That Arizona didn't notably add to the pass-catching corps in either free agency or the 2025 Draft can only be interpreted as a vote of confidence that Harrison will indeed follow through on a notable leap this year, a development that will require him to translate his added strength and size into an ability to more consistently beat opposing cornerbacks downfield, and to do so without noticeably sacrificing speed. He'll have every opportunity to emerge as a true top wideout in 2025, at least, as Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch and Zay Jones don't represent genuine competition to the target shares of either Harrison or McBride.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Struggles with eight targets
Rotowire
Harrison had four receptions on eight targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 36-30 overtime loss to Carolina.
Harrison finished with three more targets than any teammate Sunday, but he failed to lead Arizona in any other receiving category in the overtime loss. The rookie prodigy has been a boom-or-bust asset in his first year as a pro, with more busts than booms in recent weeks. Harrison has finished above 50 receiving yards in just three of his last eight appearances, with all three of his touchdowns over that span coming in the games during which he eclipsed 50 yards. That rate of inconsistency makes Harrison a risky fantasy play in standard formats against the Rams in Week 17.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison Jr.: Contrarian DFS Play

I know, the definition of insanity is playing Marvin Harrison week after week and expecting different results. Except sometimes you have to get a little crazy to win a GPP. Harrison has had some of his biggest games against bad defenses so as a contrarian play only I am running him back out there.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Quiet day with two receptions
Rotowire
Harrison had two receptions on six targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 30-17 win over the Patriots.
It was an inefficient day at the office for Harrison, who recorded just 32 receiving yards on a 33 percent catch rate. A one-sided game script in favor of Arizona also hurt the wideout's fantasy potential Sunday, as this contest was never close despite the 13-point difference once the game clock hit zero. Harrison owns a 47-687-7 receiving line through 14 starts as a rookie, with his next chance to play coming in a road tilt against Carolina next Sunday.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Held to four catches in Week 14
Rotowire
Harrison caught four of eight targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 30-18 loss to the Seahawks.
Harrison has reached 50 receiving yards only five times in his up-and-down rookie season. His eight targets against Seattle ranked second behind Trey McBride's 14, and Harrison's 20 targets over the last two games are the most he has seen in a two-game span. While there's reason for long-term optimism with the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, including Harrison's team-leading total of seven receiving touchdowns, he can't be viewed as a surefire fantasy starter in most formats when the Cardinals host the Patriots in Week 15.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Finds end zone in Sunday's loss
Rotowire
Harrison caught five of 12 targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-22 loss to the Vikings.
While the rookie wideout was far from efficient, Harrison was on the other end of Kyler Murray's only TD of the day, a 15-yard strike in the third quarter that gave the Cardinals a 19-6 lead. It was Harrison's seventh score in 12 games, which leads all rookie WRs and is fourth in the NFL behind Ja'Marr Chase, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Terry McLaurin. Harrison will look to get back in the end zone in Week 14 against the Seahawks, in a game that could have significant playoff implications in the NFC West.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison Jr.: WRs to Sit
Rotowire
It's tough to sit Harrison given his potential, but he's not getting enough targets to produce at a high level. Harrison has been at six targets or less in each of his past three games, and he scored 7.7 PPR points or less in two of those outings. Kyler Murray will likely struggle against Minnesota's defense, making it hard to love Harrison in this matchup, especially if he doesn't find the end zone. He's still worth starting in all three-receiver leagues, but this could be another letdown spot for Harrison on the road.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Musters three catches in Week 12
Rotowire
Harrison hauled in three of six targets for 47 yards and no touchdowns during Sunday's 16-6 defeat in Seattle.
Cardinals pass catchers took a back seat to TE Trey McBride (12-133-0 on 15 targets) in the passing game Week 12, as Harrison's target count ranked second on the team, while his yards from scrimmage were fourth (WR Michael Wilson had 54, and RB James Conner notched 49). Prior to Arizona's Week 11 bye, Harrison was able to salvage lacking performances with touchdowns (six in 10 appearances), but the offense was held out of the end zone this weekend. Harrison's next opportunity to produce is next Sunday at Minnesota.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Returns to end zone Sunday

Harrison brought in all five of his targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-6 win over the Jets.
Harrison rebounded from a down game in Week 9 by collecting all of his targets while cashing in his sixth touchdown of the season against the Jets. The rookie phenom has produced a 33-499-6 receiving line through 10 games as the Cardinals enter a bye week. Harrison has endured some ups and downs from a fantasy perspective, but he can still be relied upon and has a plus matchup against the Seahawks on Nov. 24.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Wakes up from slumber in Week 8
Rotowire
Harrison hauled in six of seven targets for 111 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-27 win over Miami.
Fantasy managers who drafted Harrison likely included him in lineup for Sunday's matchup despite his recent results, so the big outing was a strong signal for the rookie, who turned in his second 100-yard receiving effort of the season. Harrison is now up to a 26-411-5 receiving line through eight contests, with most of that production coming in two games.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Held in check on MNF
Rotowire
Harrison had three receptions (on six targets) for 21 yards in Monday's 17-15 win over the Chargers.
Harrison's up-and-down rookie campaign continued with another lackluster fantasy score. The 2024 first-round selection still boasts a solid 20-300-4 receiving line through four weeks, but most of that production came across a three-game span Weeks 2-4. Harrison has the pedigree and potential to be worth a start in most fantasy formats, despite his recent returns signaling the contrary. Keep faith heading into a Week 8 matchup against the Dolphins on Sunday.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Upgrades to full practice
Rotowire
Harrison (concussion) was a full practice participant Friday, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Harrison has progressed rapidly since exiting last week's loss to the Packers in the first half. He managed a limited practice Thursday in a non-contact jersey, followed by a full session Friday in a normal jersey. Harrison still needs clearance from an independent neurologist in order to play in Monday's home game against the Chargers.
