The Arizona Cardinals are reportedly finalizing a trade involving wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., in a major development that could bring his time with the NFL team to an end.

The identity of the team expected to acquire him had not been confirmed in the initial reports. Source.
Harrison was selected fourth overall by Arizona in the 2024 NFL Draft after playing college football at Ohio State. He enjoyed a promising rookie campaign, recording 62 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns.
However, his production declined in 2025, when he finished with 41 receptions for 608 yards and four touchdowns. In four games during the 2026 season, he had recorded five receptions for 85 yards and one touchdown.
The Houston Texans have reportedly emerged as potential suitors for the young receiver, while the Indianapolis Colts were also linked to trade discussions before reportedly deciding against pursuing a deal.
The reported move comes amid questions about Harrison's reduced production and role in Arizona's offense. Further details, including the receiving team and potential trade compensation, remain subject to confirmation.
