Cardinals Keep Marvin Harrison Jr. Sidelined as Knee Soreness Persists

The team is monitoring his recovery daily to decide if he will suit up for the August 9 preseason opener.

Overview

  • Head coach Jonathan Gannon has labeled Harrison’s knee soreness day-to-day and held him out of camp practices since late July.
  • Arizona’s staff has limited him in pad drills and scaled back his reps as part of a cautious workload strategy.
  • Harrison added roughly 15 pounds of muscle in the offseason after finishing his rookie year with 62 catches for 885 yards and eight touchdowns.
  • He has also emphasized mental preparation to play more freely and strengthen his on-field chemistry with quarterback Kyler Murray.
  • The Cardinals have yet to determine whether Harrison or other starters will participate in the preseason opener as they balance health and readiness.
