Cardinals Rule Out Marvin Harrison Jr. for Week 11 After Appendicitis Surgery

His absence leaves a depleted receiving corps reliant on Trey McBride plus lesser-used wideouts.

Overview

  • Coach Jonathan Gannon said Harrison had appendix surgery Monday night and is out against the 49ers, with his timeline beyond this week uncertain.
  • National reporters, including Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, indicated he could miss additional games depending on recovery.
  • Arizona’s receiver depth has thinned further with Zay Jones placed on injured reserve for a torn Achilles and Simi Fehoko moved to IR, leaving Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch and Xavier Weaver as the healthy options.
  • The Cardinals shifted Wednesday’s session to a closed walkthrough as injuries mounted across the roster.
  • Harrison leads the team’s wideouts with 34 catches for 525 yards and four touchdowns through nine games, and the team has evaluated short-term help with Andre Baccellia reportedly signed to the active roster from the practice squad.
