Marvin Harrison Jr.’s trade was in the cards all along.
The wide receiver, who wastraded to the Texans on Sunday, had early signs of discontent with the Cardinals after his request was declined for a Seeker catching machine made by Monarc Sport, per The Arizona Republic.
Harrison, who was selected fourth overall by Arizona in 2024, used the advanced robotic throwing machine valued around $50,000 that can replicate the speed and trajectory of an NFL quarterback during his days at Ohio State.
Upon his transition to the NFL, the 24-year-old wanted to continue to use as a part of his daily routine.
“He just made it a part of his routine every single day, making sure that every single minute that he had free to get better, he was making the most of it,” Kyle McCord, his quarterback while at Ohio State, once told The Republic.
