The day after Ohio State football throttled Purdue, Garrett Wilson and Marvin Harrison Jr., two former Buckeyes greats, battled it out in their first NFL matchup against each other.
While Harrison Jr.’s Cardinals destroyed the Jets by a margin almost similar to the Buckeyes 45-0 beatdown of Purdue, the two seemed to leave on good terms, swapping jerseys after the game.
Here’s a video that captured the moment.

The Cardinals won 31-6, taking a 24-6 lead into the half. Harrison Jr., who hasn’t quite had the production that many would’ve expected from the top-five pick, did end with five receptions for 54 yards and a touchdown.
Wilson was the Jets’ leading receiver, but he totaled just 41 yards and five receptions. It wasn’t a good day for the Jets offense, one that finished with 151 passing yards and 79 rushing yards.
The Jets pushed their record to 3-7 with the loss and Arizona is now firmly a playoff contending team with a 6-4 record through the first 10 weeks. Expect more to come from these receivers as they’re both still entering their respective primes.
