Arizona Cardinals star Marvin Harrison Jr. is expected to play this Sunday. He returns after a two-game absence due to an appendectomy. The team faces the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a crucial Week 13 matchup.
According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the wide receiver is officially listed as questionable. His anticipated return provides a significant boost to the Cardinals' offensive lineup. The team's passing game has shown life recently, and his presence should elevate it further.
Harrison's statistics this season highlight his importance. The former first-round pick has recorded 448 receiving yards and four touchdowns. He has done this across just eight games played.
His return shifts defensive attention. Tight end Trey McBride remains a top target, but Harrison's deep-threat capability opens the field. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett should have more reliable options downfield.
Harrison's comeback is major news for fantasy managers and bettors. His ability to score makes him a compelling option. He has found the end zone in four of his eight appearances this year.
The Buccaneers' secondary presents a favorable matchup. They have allowed the 12th-most passing touchdowns in the league. This makes Harrison's anytime touchdown prop an intriguing wager for Sunday's game.
