Marvin Harrison Rest-of-Season Outlook
Efficient depth WR for deep leagues only
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
He finished WR49 last season at 10.7 points per game.
Our Take After Week 4
Through 3 games he's WR95 at 3.8 PPR points per game, against 10.7 over 12 games last season (WR49). He's running behind last season's pace.
Last season he ranked 60th of 142 in target volume (11.8% target share), 47th of 142 in downfield role (20.3% air-yards share) and 46th of 142 in efficiency (1.70 yards per route run). His points come from his efficiency. Target volume is the soft spot. Jacoby Brissett is his quarterback.
The main risk is the job itself. He's the listed starter with Jalen Brooks next on the depth chart, and a benching or an injury would take his value to zero overnight.
The next favorable matchups are the Giants in Week 4 (8th against WRs) and the Lions in Week 5 (2nd against WRs).
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 16, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
Don't let a noisy 2025 fool you: when Harrison ran routes, the efficiency was elite. He posted 0.412 EPA per play and a 54.8% success rate, both jumps over his rookie marks, and that points to a player whose per-snap impact never cratered. The problem was volume. Across only 12 games he drew just 73 targets and an 11.8% target share, well off the 22.2% and 116 looks he commanded as a rookie, and his WOPR collapsed from 0.629 to 0.32.
The profile screams positive regression if the opportunity returns. He still averaged nearly 13 air yards per target and stayed a red-zone presence with 10 red-zone and five end-zone targets, finishing with four scores on a thin 41 catches. Restore a full route share and the downfield usage, and the WR45 finish becomes a floor, not a forecast. Buy the dip with conviction.
