Former Ohio State football player has breakout game in just his second NFL game
By Ryan Stano
Former Ohio State football player Marvin Harrison Jr. has had a rough start to his pro career. After being the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, he was hit with a lawsuit from Fanatics. That lawsuit has now expanded to include his father as well.
On top of the lawsuit, Harrison Jr. had a horrendous debut last week for the Arizona Cardinals. He had just one catch for four yards and was only targeted three times. On one of those targets, he dropped an easy first down. It was a debut to forget and he was eager to make it a thing of the past.
Boy, did he do that quickly. Despite the rough start, Harrison Jr. was able to shake it off and be a big reason for the Cardinals getting a win on Sunday. In fact, the Cardinals crushed the Rams 41-10. A big reason why the Cardinals were up big early is because of Harrison Jr.'s production.
Ex-Ohio State football player Marvin Harrison Jr. has a massive game
In just his second NFL game, Harrison Jr. had four catches for 130 yards and two touchdowns. His first touchdown catch was as good of a catch as you'll see. check it out below.
Harrison Jr. showed off his ability to tap his toes and make a catch in the back of the end-zone. He is the best rookie receiver in the league. In this game, he also led the team in targets. Kyler Murray targeted him eight times in this game. He hardly played in the second half too because Arizona had such a big lead.
He was drafted to be a number-one receiver right away and it looks like Harrison Jr. is living up to that billing. I expect him to put up similar numbers to this all year long.
