The Arizona Cardinals have finalized a trade sending wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Houston Texans, ending his tenure after less than three seasons. Houston acquires Harrison and a 2027 seventh-round pick in exchange for a 2027 second-round and sixth-round selection.
Harrison was inactive for the Cardinals' Week 5 game against the Detroit Lions as the deal was completed. The 24-year-old finishes his Arizona career with 108 receptions for 1,578 yards and 13 touchdowns across 33 games.
“Yes, alright, we traded for Marvin Harrison.”
The trade reunites Harrison with quarterback C.J. Stroud, his former teammate at Ohio State. Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans confirmed the acquisition following Houston's victory over the Tennessee Titans.
Arizona drafted Harrison fourth overall in 2024 after he won the Biletnikoff Award at Ohio State. His production declined sharply in 2026, totaling just five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown through four games.
Reports indicated the Cardinals sought a second-round pick from the Indianapolis Colts but ultimately accepted Houston's package. The move signals a reset for both the player and the franchise.
