Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Officially shifts to IR
Rotowire
The Cardinals placed Harrison (foot) on injured reserve Friday.
Harrison's placement on IR is no surprise, given that he was ruled out for Week 18 on Wednesday by head coach Jonathan Gannon. The second-year pro is dealing with a foot injury suffered during Arizona's loss to the Bengals in Week 17, but there have not yet been any indications that the issue is anything that could impact his participation in the team's offseason program. Across a disappointing sophomore campaign in which injuries limited him to just 12 regular-season appearances, Harrison secured 41 of 73 targets for 608 yards and four touchdowns.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Ruled out for Week 18
Rotowire
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Harrison (foot) will not suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale on the road against the Rams, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Harrison will miss Arizona's final game of the 2025 campaign due to a foot injury suffered versus Cincinnati in Week 17, a contest in which he played just 33 percent of offensive snaps and failed to secure his only target. That wraps a disappointing second professional season for the 2024 first-round pick, who concludes the year with a 41-608-4 receiving line on 73 targets across 12 regular-season appearances. Prior to his current foot issue, a heel injury limited Harrison to just three appearances after Week 10, across which he combined for just seven catches for 83 yards. Harrison fading down the stretch has paved the way for WR Michael Wilson to emerge as a legitimate playmaker alongside TE Trey McBride, both of whom will will remain the clear top targets for QB Jacoby Brissett in the Cardinals' regular-season finale against a Los Angeles squad that may have nothing to play for in terms of playoff seeding should the 49ers defeat the Seahawks on Saturday night.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Could play Week 18
Rotowire
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Harrison (heel) will suit up for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams "if he is healthy enough to play," Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.
Harrison has at least not yet been ruled out for Week 18, which is encouraging. He missed Weeks 14 and 15 due to a heel injury before he was cleared to suit up for each of Arizona's next two games. He then was forced off the field Week 17 versus Cincinnati due to an apparent aggravation of that issue. Gannon said Monday, however, that Harrison is dealing with a foot injury. It appears as though Harrison's availability for Week 18 will come down to the extent of his practice activity Wednesday through Friday.
Harrison left Sunday's game in Cincinnati due to a heel injury.
Harrison sat out Weeks 14 and 15 due to a heel issue but has been able to suit up for both of the Cardinals' last two contests. Upon his departure in the fourth quarter this Sunday, he was unable to haul in his only target. For as long as Harrison is sidelined, Michael Wilson will continue to pace the team's receiving corps, with WRs Xavier Weaver, Jalen Brooks and Steven Sims the other available options at the position.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Suiting up again Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) is listed as active Sunday at Cincinnati, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
For a second week in a row, Harrison wasn't able to progress beyond a limited participant in practice as he tends to the heel injury that sidelined him Weeks 14 and 15. He entered the weekend listed as questionable, and while Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday evening that Harrison was expected to play, the second-year wide receiver again is slated to have his workload managed. Harrison logged a 51 percent snap share last Sunday against the Falcons en route to one catch (on three targets) for 14 yards, which was well behind fellow WR Michael Wilson's 86 percent share and 2-52-1 line on three targets.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Likely to be on snap count Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) remains listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, but he's expected to play and is likely to have his snaps managed for the second straight contest, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Harrison had missed four of the Cardinals' five games between Weeks 11 and 15 -- two due to an appendectomy, two due to a heel injury -- before he was cleared to return to action in last Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Falcons. However, Harrison played just 51 percent of the offensive snaps in the loss, turning in a disappointing 1-14-0 receiving line on three targets. Harrison looks to have avoided any setbacks coming out of that contest, but he'll once again be carrying a designation into the weekend after he was a limited participant in all three of the Cardinals' Week 17 practices. Harrison should be cleared when Arizona releases its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but the likelihood that he has his snaps monitored again probably limits his fantasy appeal relative to the Cardinals' other top pass catchers, tight end Trey McBride and wideout Michael Wilson.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Status in question for Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest at Cincinnati, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison was listed as limited on all three of Arizona's Week 17 practice reports due to a heel injury, which, according to the wide receiver, feels "solid" and should allow him to play Sunday. His status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, but even if he does suit up, it stands to reason he may not be available for much more than the 51 percent snap share he handled this past Sunday against the Falcons.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison maintained his activity level from Wednesday's walkthrough, but he now has just one chance remaining during Week 17 prep to prove the health of his lingering heel injury. Friday's practice report will reveal if he carries a designation into Sunday's contest at Cincinnati, but even if he's able to suit up again, he may not be as featured in Arizona's passing attack after handling just a 51 percent snap share en route to one catch (on three targets) for 14 yards this past Sunday against the Falcons in his return from a two-game absence.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
In his return from a two-game absence due to a heel injury this past Sunday against the Falcons, Harrison played just 29 of 57 offensive snaps and gathered in one of three targets for 14 yards. The workload was a significant departure from most of his appearances this season, but it's not a total surprise considering Adam Schefter of ESPN reported late Saturday that Harrison was expected to be eased back in. Harrison's limitations to begin Week 17 prep indicate his health still is compromised, and how he fares in drills Thursday and Friday likely will play into the Cardinals' decision to tag him with a designation (or not) ahead of Sunday's game at Cincinnati.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Just one grab in return Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) had one reception (on three targets) for 14 yards in Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Falcons.
Harrison returned from his second two-game layoff since Week 10 -- the first was due to a concussion -- to reclaim his spot in Arizona's starting lineup. The 22-year-old may have been limited by the nagging heel injury that sidelined him in the first place after finishing Sunday's contest with new single-game lows for receptions (one) and yards (14) this season. Adam Schefter of ESPN shared late Saturday that the Cardinals planned to ease Harrison in upon his return, and that was indeed the case Sunday, as he logged just a 51 percent offensive snap share -- well below the 89 percent share posted by usual No. 2 wideout Michael Wilson. All three of Arizona's top receiving options experienced dips in production against Atlanta in Week 16, so Harrison's dud also may have been the result of a poor matchup for the Cardinals as a whole. Harrison will make another attempt at a return to form -- and may see an increased workload -- in next Sunday's road matchup against the Bengals.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Back in action in Week 16
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) is listed as active Sunday against the Falcons.
Harrison is putting an end to a two-game absence -- and four DNPs in the past five contests -- but according to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the second-year wide receiver likely will be eased back in after being limited in all three Week 16 sessions as he attempts to put a heel injury behind him. Assuming Harrison's snap count is curtailed, Michael Wilson will continue to operate as the Cardinals' top option at the position, while Xavier Weaver (hamstring), Jalen Brooks and Steven Sims also will be on hand for snaps and targets.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Likely to play, but may be eased in
Rotowire
Harrison, who is officially questionable for Sunday's Week 16 matchup against Atlanta due to a heel injury, is expected to suit up, though Arizona intends to "ease him back in," Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Harrison sat out the Cardinals' past two contests because of the heel issue. He was a limited participant in all three of the team's practices this week, which should be enough for him to return to action Sunday. However, the second-year wideout has stated that the heel injury is going to linger for the remainder of the campaign, which may be why Arizona is seemingly planning to take a careful approach to his game activity. It's unclear exactly how that will impact his offensive snap share, but fantasy managers should at least be aware that Harrison may not log his usual allotment of snaps, which could also be a boon to the outlook of No. 2 wideout Michael Wilson, who has thrived this season when Harrison has been absent.
Harrison (heel) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison followed up Wednesday's capped walkthrough with a similar activity level one day later, which generally is a good sign that he's trending toward a return to action Sunday against the Falcons. Friday's injury report will provide insight into his odds to do so, but with Xavier Weaver (hamstring) also limited in practice this week, Michael Wilson and Jalen Brooks currently are the only healthy options at wide receiver on Arizona's active roster.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Limited in walkthrough
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) was limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Since the Cardinals' Week 8 bye, Harrison has made just three appearances (Weeks 9, 10 and 13) while missing Weeks 11 and 12 following an appendectomy and Weeks 14 and 15 due to a heel injury. Coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Harrison felt "good" in his return to practice, and the Cardinals will take a wait-and-see approach as the team gears up for Sunday's game against the Falcons. Currently, Michael Wilson and Jalen Brooks are the only healthy wide receivers on Arizona's active roster, so getting Harrison back would be a boost to the passing game.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Missing second straight game
Rotowire
Head coach Jonathan Gannon ruled out Harrison (heel) for Sunday's game in Houston, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison didn't practice in any fashion this week and will miss his second straight game due to the heel issue, ultimately being sidelined for the fourth time in five games overall after he was out Weeks 11 and 12 while recovering from an appendectomy. With Harrison unavailable once again, wideout Michael Wilson and tight end Trey McBride should continue to command heavy target volume from quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who is averaging 43.1 pass attempts per game through eight starts.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Another DNP on Thursday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) isn't practicing Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison thus will have just one more chance to mix into drills this week, or else he'll be at risk of missing a second game in a row due to a heel injury. If he sits out again Sunday at Houston, it'll mark his fourth absence in the past five games after he sat out Weeks 11-12 following an appendectomy. Fellow WR Michael Wilson prospered during Harrison's three recent absences, totaling a 36-445-2 line on 49 targets in those contests. Andre Baccellia is the only other healthy wide receiver on Arizona's active roster.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Ruled out for Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Harrison hasn't been practiced since injuring his heel in the second half of a Week 13 loss to Tampa Bay. It was his first game back from a two-week absence following an appendectomy, during which WR Michael Wilson caught 25 of 33 targets for 303 yards.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Officially DNP on Wednesday
Rotowire
Harrison (heel) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Zach Gershman of the Cardinals' official site reports.
This comes as no surprise, as Harrison wasn't spotted at the media-access portion of Wednesday's session. The second-year pro is dealing with a heel injury that he suffered in the fourth quarter of this past Sunday's loss at Tampa Bay, but coach Jonathan Gannon said Wednesday that Harrison was feeling "OK." Harrison likely will need to practice at some point this week to have a chance to play Sunday against the Rams, but if he sits out, it'll mark his third absence in the last four games (he missed Weeks 11 and 12 following an appendectomy).

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Battles heel injury in Week 13
Rotowire
Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said after Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers that Harrison exited in the second half of the game due to a heel injury and was unable to return, Jess Root of USA Today reports.
Back in action Sunday after missing the previous two contests while recovering from an appendectomy, Harrison finished with six catches for 69 yards on seven targets while playing 37 of 61 offensive snaps (61 percent). It's not clear when Harrison sustained the heel injury, but he had an insert placed in his shoe at one point during the contest, only to remove it later on. Harrison was then seen limping around on the field in the second half after catching a pass, prompting the Cardinals to pull him from the contest. The second-year wideout will undergo further evaluation, so his status for next Sunday's matchup with the Rams is cloudy for the time being.

Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Back in action Sunday
Rotowire
Harrison (appendix) is active for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.
In the wake of a Week 12 loss to the Jaguars, coach Jonathan Gannon said last Monday that Harrison didn't have a timeline for a return to action after missing the past two contests due to appendicitis, per Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com. Harrison then mixed into drills Wednesday and maintained limited activity through Friday before the Cardinals tagged him as questionable to play Sunday. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday evening that Harrison was in line to suit up this weekend, which now will come to pass. Considering he may not be running at full capacity, though, Harrison may take a back seat to TE Trey McBride and fellow WR Michael Wilson in terms of targets from QB Jacoby Brissett.
