Marvin Harrison trade: What the Arizona Cardinals had to say about deal
Now that the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade is official, here is what some on the Cardinals said about it.
The Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans finalized their trade involving wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. in an unexpected move. The Cardinals sent Harrison, along with a 2027 sixth-round pick, to Houston for two future draft picks - a second-round and a seventh-round selection. This surprising trade, despite initial reservations, appears logical considering Harrison's performance and usage.
After a loss to the Detroit Lions, head coach Mike LaFleur commented on the trade, stating it was in the best interest of the team, but admitted he couldn't explain the timing. LaFleur did express positive sentiments about Harrison, calling him a good person, and acknowledged he would be responsible if Harrison did not reach his full potential.
General manager Monti Ossenfort echoed this in a statement, emphasizing the team's decision was driven by what was best for the football team. Quarterback Jacoby Brissett also weighed in on the trade, expressing the emotional impact of losing a teammate, despite the business aspect of the trade.
