ESPN reporters Josh Weinfuss and Stephen Holder said the Indianapolis Colts are among the teams looking to trade for Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., according to Bleacher Report.

What happened

Harrison, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2024 draft, entered his third NFL season with a promising rookie year (62 catches, 885 yards, eight touchdowns) but saw his production dip after heel injuries, appendicitis and a concussion in 2025 (41 catches, 608 yards, four touchdowns). Through four games this season he has recorded five catches for 85 yards and one touchdown on 12 targets.

What the reports add

Bleacher Report notes that the Cardinals are not actively shopping Harrison, but “other teams are still doing their due diligence.” The report also cites Adam Schefter’s earlier comment on the Pat McAfee Show that the Colts have shown interest. Injuries to Indianapolis receivers Alec Pierce, Keenan Allen and Ashton Dulin have created a need that Harrison could fill.

What was said

Weinfuss and Holder quoted unnamed sources telling ESPN that the Colts would “entertain the idea of trading for Harrison.”

How it came about

Felo previously covered Harrison’s trade chatter on September 30 and October 3, noting his slow start and questions about his WR1 potential. The latest report adds the Colts as a concrete suitor amid the Cardinals’ ongoing offensive struggles.
