Texans' Nick Caserio explains how Marvin Harrison Jr. trade went down, talks C.J. Stroud extension
Texans GM Nick Caserio appeared on 97.5 The Fan and explained the unusual mechanics and timing of the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade with the Cardinals and discussed C.J. Stroud contract talks.
Marvin Harrison Jr. was traded from the Arizona Cardinals to the Houston Texans in an unusual deal that started on Saturday but became official on Sunday after their win over the Tennessee Titans. The deal was brokered by Texans general manager Nick Caserio and Cardinals executive Monti Ossenfort, who worked together previously in New England.
The Texans sent a second- and seventh-round pick in the 2027 draft and a sixth-rounder next year in exchange for Harrison and a sixth-rounder in 2024. Caserio was willing to make the trade even if the Texans lost their game against the Titans, stating they wouldn't back out of a deal once agreed upon. Harrison joined the Texans for his first practice on Wednesday, with no timeline for his field contributions yet.
Regarding C.J. Stroud, Caserio left the door open for midseason contract talks, as the quarterback still has two years left on his current deal and could be worth big money if he continues his strong performance.
