Wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. opened Tuesday’s interview by confirming he’s still working toward full health after a cascade of 2025 injuries. The third‑year Cardinal missed five games due to appendicitis, two separate heel injuries and a concussion that forced him out in Week 6. He says the recovery process is ongoing but expects no lingering effects next season.

Harrison’s 2025 campaign was derailed after he left the Week 6 matchup with Indianapolis because of the concussion, then spent the following week hospitalized for appendicitis. He returned in Week 13, only to injure his right heel, sit out two games, come back in Week 16, and re‑injure the opposite heel in Week 17, missing the finale against Los Angeles.

Despite the setbacks, Harrison insists his body feels strong enough for full participation. He emphasizes that staying healthy this offseason is his priority, trusting that consistent preparation will translate to on‑field production. The Cardinals can count on his speed and route‑running once he clears the lingering foot concerns, giving Arizona a reliable deep threat for the 2026 schedule.

The injuries cost the Cardinals a regular‑season starter in nearly half their games, a factor many analysts cite in the team’s 6‑10 finish. With Harrison cleared, Arizona hopes his return will boost a passing attack that struggled to reach 300 yards per game last year.
