Why Texans fans should temper expectations for Marvin Harrison Jr.'s Week 6 debut
Texans' fans shouldn't expect to see a heavy dose of Marvin Harrison Jr. this week.
Texans fans should exercise caution in their expectations for Marvin Harrison Jr. in his Week 6 debut for the Houston Texans, according to a report from ESPN's BJ Dien-Aime. While Harrison will indeed take the field, he is expected to be involved in only a limited capacity. Coach DeMeco Ryans has confirmed that Harrison will play, but he will not be a significant part of the offense.
Instead of seeing the majority of offensive snaps, Harrison is likely to see limited roles and packages within the Texans' game plan. It would be surprising if Xavier Hutchinson, Jaylin Noel, or Kayshon Boutte received more playing time in Week 6 than Harrison, given the team's focus on other key players. Texans fans should not be alarmed if Harrison's involvement is not on par with Nico Collins or other starting receivers, as it is reasonable for his playing time to be limited in his first game with the team.
While there's a chance that Harrison might be more involved than anticipated, Texans fans should temper their expectations and understand that his debut may not live up to the full complement of plays initially.
