Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. records only one catch in first two games of 2026 season
Arizona's Marvin Harrison Jr. has been targeted four times and made one reception in the team's opening two games, a sharp decline from his production last season.
Marvin Harrison Jr. has recorded a single catch and been targeted four times in the Arizona Cardinals' first two games of the 2026 NFL season. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett attempted 65 passes during that span, with only one completed to Harrison, according to game statistics.
The limited involvement follows a 2025 campaign in which injuries restricted Harrison to 12 games. He entered the 2026 season as a third-year player expected to be a primary receiving option after posting eight touchdown receptions and 116 targets as a rookie in 2024.
The Cardinals have yet to secure a playoff victory in more than a decade and are not projected as division contenders this year. Nevertheless, the team's early offensive output has not featured significant contributions from Harrison, who is currently on pace for zero touchdowns and 34 targets after two games.
Analysts note that while the season is still early and the team has 15 games remaining, Harrison's production thus far is markedly lower than in previous seasons.
