NFL Network: Cardinals to trade WR Marvin Harrison Jr. to Texans
Key Points:
- The Arizona Cardinals have traded wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Houston Texans in exchange for 2027 second- and sixth-round draft picks.
- Harrison, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, struggled with consistency and injuries during his first three NFL seasons, recording 103 catches, 1,493 yards, and 12 touchdowns over 29 games before a slow start to the 2026 season.
- The trade reunites Harrison with former Ohio State teammate and Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, as Houston aims to improve after starting the 2026 season 1-4 following a win over the Titans.
- Despite speculation linking Harrison to the Indianapolis Colts, the Texans secured the wide receiver to bolster their receiving corps alongside Nico Collins and Tank Dell.
- Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans confirmed the acquisition, signaling a move to salvage what was expected to be a potential Super Bowl season.
