Texans trade for Marvin Harrison Jr. to reunite with CJ Stroud
Summary

The Houston Texans acquired wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. from the Arizona Cardinals on October 11. The trade, confirmed by head coach DeMeco Ryans after a 26-3 victory over the Tennessee Titans, involved the Texans sending a 2027 second-round pick and a sixth-round pick to Arizona. This reunion marks a chance for Harrison to regain form after a lackluster start to his NFL career. He joins familiar face CJ Stroud, who was his quarterback at Ohio State, where they were a prolific duo. The Texans hope to spark their offense as they seek more consistency moving forward.
