Cardinals trade WR Marvin Harrison Jr. to Texans

Marvin Harrison Jr. is officially on the move.

The Cardinals traded the third-year wide receiver and a 2027 sixth-round pick to the Texans in exchange for 2027 second-round and seventh-round selections, Arizona announced Monday. The deal is official, pending the passing of a physical.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported the news Sunday afternoon.

“Decisions like this are never easy,” Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort said in a statement. “Ultimately, we have to do what is best for our football team and that will always be the driving factor. We are extremely grateful to Marvin for what he has contributed to our organization and wish him the very best as he moves forward in his career.”

The trade comes after ESPN and NFL Network reported Saturday that the Cardinals were finalizing a trade to send Harrison to at the time an unidentified team.

The Texans reportedly had been in trade talks for Harrison, and that smoke proved to be the fire of a deal that will send the No. 4 overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft from the NFC West to the AFC South.

"You guys want to know, huh? Yes, we traded for Marvin Harrison," Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Sunday following his team's 26-3 win over the Titans.

Harrison entered the NFL with Hall of Fame heritage and sky-high expectations after a celebrated career at Ohio State.

But 33 games into his pro career, Harrison has struggled to live up to his draft billing.

Harrison entered his third season with 103 catches for 1,493 yards and 12 touchdowns over 29 games, but he struggled through consistency and injuries over those first two years.

His play, however, has cratered through four games to begin the 2026 season. Harrison has just five receptions on 13 targets for 85 yards and a TD this season and was subject to trade speculation the past few weeks.

One team that was rumored as a potential destination was the Indianapolis Colts. It would have been a logical fit and a familiar new home for Harrison, as the Colts are currently without Alec Pierce due to injury, and Harrison's father, Marvin Harrison, starred in Indy during his Hall of Fame career from 1996 to 2008.

Harrison instead will head to a different AFC South team in Houston and one that is looking to save its season after an 0-4 start -- now 1-4 following the Texans' win on Sunday -- that has quickly soured what was thought to be a potential Super Bowl year for Ryans' squad.

Harrison will reunite with his former college QB in C.J. Stroud with the Texans and will fit into a receiver room led by Nico Collins and potentially Tank Dell, who returned to practice this past week.

"Reunited, and it feels so good
Reunited, 'cause we understood
There's one perfect fit
And, sugar, this one is it
We both are so excited
'Cause we're reunited, hey, hey"

Dang.. I saw the prices and it went right back into bucket list for me. I certainly hope you get to use those tickets.. UNLESS of course, it's because the Guards sweep their opponent in the WS.

And what does that have to do with your comment about "cheerleading for criminals"? I can help you out with that. Absolutely nothing.


No, not it's not. The families of victims have always been permitted to witness executions. This would be no different and showing it to the public has nothing to do with that. You don't need to live stream it to the entire public to see just so military members can view it. Closed circuit would solve the very thing you are speaking of. Closed-circuit television (CCTV) is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific, limited set of monitors rather than broadcasting it to the general public. For some reason you're buying into a false narrative here.


This isn't about criminal rights in any way. As has been pointed out to you, victims families have already been given the right to witness executions of people who have killed their family members. Retribution is his execution. See how closed circuit viewing works again from above. That would totally address military members having the availability to see it.


And yet nobody in this thread has disputed that. Why do you ignore everything else posted in this thread regarding why this isn't as good idea to support this false narrative?

Bard, I looked up last year's stats on Bond. It said he only had 1 dropped pass and 18 receptions. He was targeted 44 times. So that works out to 5-6 drops for 100 receptions. I don't think that's too bad. The thing is his drops Sunday might have cost us the game so you can't blame everyone for dumping on him. I still feel he's worth keeping on the team and developing.

Since 2020, Elon Musk has donated at least $656 million in publicly known contributions to Republican-aligned committees, super PACs, and election efforts.

Musk's political giving transformed entirely after 2020. During the 2020 election, he did not financially back Donald Trump or Republican national efforts, choosing instead to vote for Joe Biden. His large-scale financial alignment with the Republican party began in 2022 and escalated heavily through the 2024 and 2026 election cycles:

Total Known Donations by Election Cycle

• 2022 Midterms: (Minimal direct federal PAC contributions, though he publicly endorsed voting for Republicans). He also reportedly routed roughly $50 million to a conservative issue-advocacy group, Citizens for Sanity, in the lead-up to these elections.

• 2024 Election: Approximately $290 million, primarily driven by his newly created America PAC to fund massive ground-game and voter turnout efforts to elect Donald Trump and down-ballot Republicans.

• 2026 Midterm Cycle: Approximately $366 million. Recent campaign filings revealed a massive surge in his giving, officially making him the single largest known donor of the 2026 midterms.

Where the 2026 Midterm Money Went

Musk's recent $366 million push is heavily consolidated into saving the Republican congressional majorities:

• Senate Leadership Fund: $158 million (The main super PAC backing Republican Senate candidates).

• America PAC: $76 million (His personal super PAC driving nationwide GOP door-knocking operations).

• Congressional Leadership Fund: $20 million (The main super PAC for House Republicans).

• State & Local GOP Groups: $22 million (Including $10 million to Lone Star Liberty PAC supporting Texas Republicans, $10 million to the Republican Governors Association, and $2 million to the Republican Attorneys General Association).

• Prior 2026 Contributions: $90 million contributed earlier in the cycle before July.

If handing off gets the ball out of DW's hand quicker, then I am all for it!

Week 5 is now in the books and the winner of week 5 is FATE with a total of 9 wins.

Congrats FATE!

Hope today was better, tomorrow is better than today, and healing continues to find you.
PS Prayers attached! Be strong!

Brilliance, this is! LOLetc.

I understand and accept that part of Trump's schtick is to spout off and talk crap a good amount. When that's about the democrats and some of the political nonsense - maybe it matters less. Maybe. I mean there's a good part of me that says that by accepting the new norm of constant lies we are heading down the wrong path. Politicians lie and they always have ... what Trump does is on a different level and shouldn't be accepted as the norm really ... BUT ... for the sake of my comment here and now and for some who think that accepting that side of trump is worth it because he's not a commie Democrat ....

My comment is - the lies and unfactual or ignorant comments at home about domestic issues is one thing. What we're seeing in Iran is a level of incompetence and ignorance and lying that is astronomical.

- The nuclear facility and capacity was completely obliterated. June 2025.
- March this year - after the initial attacks: “The war is very complete, pretty much.”
- April “Their navy is gone. Their air force is gone. Their missiles are just about used up or beaten.”
- April “Iran leadership just asked the United States of America for a CEASEFIRE!” -- to which they immediately said, no they didn't.
- April about the Strait of Hormuz “We will have that open fairly soon.”
- April - “Militarily, we've wiped them out. They have no military left.”
- May - about the Stait - “There hasn't been a ship that's been able to get through without our approval.” ... some ships continued to move thru the straight until October.
- August - “The Hormuz Strait is open and operating. All water mines have been removed or detonated.” ... an absolute outright lie.

I'll set aside the dozens of claims throughout the process that negotiations were close, that they were desperate to finish the war and the constant claims of an imminent end.

But now we have a unilateral announcement of a deal with Russia (that contradict sanctions placed on Russia by Congress less than a month ago).

1. It aids Russia in it's war with Ukraine.
2. Trump is now blaming high oil prices on Ukraine instead of his war vs Iran. (yet one more Russian propaganda talking point coming out of Trump's moouth)
3. The amount of oil talked about in his deal is [A] going to go on the open market and won't come to the USA [B] if it ALL came to the USA it would be *maybe* a 10 day supply. [C] I have seen reports that Russia simply don't have the infrastructure to transport that much oil remotely quickly.

How or why is this not a much, much, much bigger issue for the entire country including Republicans?

Yeessss! That is it. I had forgotten the Fridge and Mike and a few others. Thanks for the memory, Pit! So hip, it hurts. You do not see choreography like this every day. Ditka rocked!

Maybe they should have just made one excuse and stuck with it then instead fo trying to use three different excuses...................

• The "Hypothetical Threat" Argument: White House Communications Director Steven Cheung and administration spokespersons stated that Trump was not encouraging an attack, but was instead warning about what would have happened to U.S. cities if a nuclear-armed Iran had not been stopped by his administration's actions.

• The "Misinterpretation" Claim: Trump and his supporters argued that his words were misinterpreted out of context, claiming the remark was part of a broader, off-the-cuff point about Americans accepting temporary economic sacrifices (such as higher gas prices) in exchange for long-term national security.

• The "Deterrence / We Protect Our Cities" Clarification: At a subsequent rally in San Antonio, Texas, Trump attempted to reframe the statement, adding that the U.S. actively defends its territory and would never actually let such an attack happen ("We're not going to let that happen, we protect our cities").

He's either evil or stupid. Watching his actions and hearing his words for years now, probably both.

"the lady doth protest too much, methinks"

Trump wins 2026 Nobel Peace Prize for ending 8 wars and ending one war (the war in Iran) 34 times. Trump was gracious in his acknowledgement and acceptance of the award and the world applauded.
🤣

This is old time.

I doubt people today appreciate how good Louis Armstrong was and the influence he had on the music of his time.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda---- Nothing in this forum since the Jax massace. WOW, now 3-1 and in FIRST PLACE. Coulda kept Ski....JMHO, Stefanski’s message had run stale in Cleveland. Woulda our OLD DC been 3-1....I doubt it. Shoulda hired our current head coach, he has worked hard to get the best out of an offensive line with whole new crew.....and they are doing well. He has brought "freshness to the O, and has Watson playing his best football since the trade......GREAT, go Browns!!!!

Interesting to see what the Browns do once they activate him....namely, whether or not they keep 4 QBs.
