The Arizona Cardinals will be down wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. complex. This will be his second consecutive absence due to a nagging heel injury. Harrison Jr. had an acute injury that happened in Week 13 vs the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. As a result, he has now missed four of the last five games, raising worries over his long-term recovery and the team’s immediate prospects.
Signs of improvement were reported by Head Coach Jonathan Gannon, who said Harrison Jr. is “doing a lot better.” Despite this progress, the decision to rest him for another game reflects the team’s cautious approach to managing his health. Gannon was somewhat optimistic, saying that he anticipates Harrison Jr. should be back before the season ends.
The Arizona Cardinals come into this matchup on the heels of five straight losses. This losing streak is their second five-game slide of the season. The fact that Harrison Jr. and Johnson Jr. don’t appear in the lineup, however, is what’s most worrisome. Are they too late to turn their fortunes around to salvage the rest of this season?
As the Cardinals look to navigate these injuries and regain momentum, fans and analysts alike are closely monitoring Harrison Jr.’s recovery. The team is going to feel his absence especially with a playmaking dynamic like him. They have been turning over a new leaf in this harsh hot growth season.
