The Arizona Cardinals will face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 7. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR Marvin Harrison Jr.
Is Marvin Harrison Jr. Playing in Week 7?
Marvin Harrison Jr. was knocked out of the Cardinals’ Week 6 game at the Packers early with a concussion. That often comes with at least one missed game, but it appears Harrison at least has a chance to suit up after he returned to practice on Thursday in a yellow non-contact jersey.
On Friday, Harrison got rid of the non-contact jersey and fully practiced.
This does not assure that Harrison will play, as he still needs to progress through the five stages of the concussion protocol. But at the very least, it’s a promising sign for his health that he’s back on the field four days after his injury. Fantasy managers should still line up contingency plans for Sunday, but it seems likely that any Harrison absence would be a short one.
We’ll continue to monitor the Cardinals’ injury report. You can also visit and bookmark our NFL Injury Tracker and Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Marvin Harrison Jr. in Week 7?
This game being the final one of the week further complicates the already complicated concussion protocol. The most common happening in these situations is one missed game, and with Arizona more interested in the future of Harrison Jr. than the present, it stands to reason that they’ll be cautious with their budding star.
Consistency hasn’t been the hallmark of Harrison, be it week-to-week or even quarter-to-quarter (78.2% of his fantasy production has come in first quarters this season), making it even more difficult to recommend waiting out this injury.
If you can grab Rashod Bateman, Jalen McMillan, or Joshua Palmer off the wire in an effort to protect yourself on Monday night, go for it. But if you have a top-40 receiver on your bench and we enter the weekend without clarity, I’d take the safe approach and bench Harrison this week.
