Did Marvin Harrison Jr. Just Save His Season?

After committing one of the worst drops you'll see on an NFL field in Week 3, Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr.'s Week 4 got off to a nightmarish start. A pass clanged off his hands and into Seahawks DB Coby Bryant's for an INT in the first quarter. Then Harrison appeared to quit on a route in the second quarter, leading to an easy INT for LB Ernest Jones. Harrison headed into halftime with one catch on five targets for eight yards. A 16-yard catch in the third quarter seemed to get Harrison going, though. He made an impressive leaping, contested grab for a 16-yard TD in the fourth quarter. And he caught two more balls for 23 yards on Arizona's game-tying TD drive late in the fourth. Harrison finished the game with six receptions for 66 yards and a score.

2025 Fantasy Football Impact

To say the second half was a much-needed bounce back for Harrison would be an understatement. You could see the relief when he made that TD catch in the fourth quarter. He seemed to gain confidence from there.

We'll see if Harrison can roll this momentum into Week 5 and beyond. He gets a neutral matchup vs. the Titans next weekend before negative draws against the Colts and Packers, according to our adjusted fantasy points allowed.

We'd still consider Harrison more of a WR3 for now in a Cardinals offense that struggled for much of Thursday night. But there's still top-20 upside here if Harrison and QB Kyler Murray can play like they did in the second half.
