The Arizona Cardinals lost rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. during their Week 6 game against the Green Bay Packers. He had to be helped off the field after taking a hit to the head on an incomplete pass, and when he initially stood up, he fell back down.
Harrison is still in the concussion protocol, but there are positive signs regarding his return to the field, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
“The Cardinals have some level of optimism about wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. returning soon, depending on how fast he can pass through the five phases of concussion protocol. He took a bad hit, so the team won’t rush him out there, but he’s doing well coming out of the game,” Fowler wrote.
Harrison has been a plus for the Cardinals offense so far this season, as he’s caught 17 catches for 279 yards and four touchdowns.
