Marvin Harrison Jr. Trade Grades: Cardinals Give Up on Former Top-Five Pick

A day after it was reported that the Cardinals would trade Marvin Harrison Jr., Arizona has dealt the third-year receiver along with a seventh-round pick to the Texans in exchange for 2027 second- and sixth-round picks, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Harrison became the subject of trade rumors early in the season when he recorded only one reception on four targets for 33 yards through the first two games and was questioned for his effort on routes and in the run game. Now, two and a half years after the Cardinals made him the No. 4 pick in the draft, they’re dealing him to the Texans. He’ll join a Houston team in need of receiver depth and looking to live up to its preseason expectations after a 1–4 start.
