Arizona Cardinals' biggest question mark is at WR, says Pro Football Network
What is the Cardinals' biggest question mark in 2025? Let's see what PFN has to say. As we wait for the start of training camp in late July, we have time to contemplate all the questions we have about the teams we cheer for. What is the biggest question mark for the Arizona Cardinals? There are many, but Pro Football Network put together the biggest question mark for every NFL team, and they picked one that many would agree with for the Cardinals. Arizona Cardinals' biggest question mark entering 2025 PFN says it is the Cardinals' wide receiver group. Marvin Harrison Jr. didn't have a bad rookie season, but after falling short of 1,000 receiving yards, he didn't live up to expectations in his first season with the Arizona Cardinals. Aside from Harrison, Arizona's receiving corps could use some improvement. Michael Wilson is a solid complementary piece, but they don't have a star. With him, Zay Jones, and Greg Dortch competing for touches, one of them will need to take the next step. This is fair. They truly have two position groups that are questionable — receiver and inside linebacker. Now, the question goes deeper than just the position. There are some questions that we might be able to answer by the end of the season. While Harrison wasn't great, he did have good games. But his usage was questionable. There was zero effort to try and get him the ball quickly and let him make things happen. Wilson and Dortch have not yet cracked 600 yards in a season. Jones had eight whole catches. It is certainly the least sure position the Cardinals have on offense.

Arizona Cardinals 2nd-year player outlook: WR Marvin Harrison Jr.
Arizona Cardinals 2nd-year player outlook: WR Marvin Harrison Jr. A look 2024 first-round pick Marvin Harrison Jr. and his second-year outlook in 2025 The Arizona Cardinals drafted 12 players in 2024. Some of them had contributions as rookies. Some will have greater roles in 2025. Others will have to battle for the roster. Their first pick in 2024 was receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. Let's have a look at his outlook in 2025 Marvin Harrison Jr. 2024 season Harrison entered the season with massive expectations. He fell short of superstar rookie levels but didn't have a bad season. He still had one of the best rookie receiver seasons in Cardinals history. He had 62 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns. He had dominant games, logging two 100-yard games and another with 96 yards. He wasn't consistent, though, looking like a rookie at times not knowing where he was supposed to be. Marvin Harrison Jr. outlook in 2025 Harrison will again be a starting receiver and will be their No. 1 option at receiver. He should be a no-No. 1 target along with tight end Trey McBride this year. He will play a lot, get a lot of opportunities and should be even better than he was as a rookie. It isn't unreasonable to expect over 1,000 yards.

Ohio State Makes Move for Brother of Marvin Harrison Jr.
The Ohio State Buckeyes football program has had plenty of talented wide receivers throughout the program. In recent years, the Buckeyes have had stars such as Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Curtis Samuel, Parris Campbell, Emeka Egbuka and plenty more. Advertisement Another one is Marvin Harrison Jr., who was selected No. 4 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals. Now, Ohio State is trying to stick with the Harrison family ties, and rightfully so. On Sunday, it was revealed that Ohio State has sent out an offer to Jett Harrison, a Class of 2028 wide receiver who is the younger brother of Marvin Harrison Jr. Former Ohio State WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Rick Osentoski-USA TODAY Sports Jett Harrison revealed the news on his Instagram account with four words: "Thanks for the offer." Harrison plays at St. Joseph's Prep School in Philadelphia and still has a long way to go in his school career. On his IG page, Harrison also posted offers previously from Tennessee, Boston College, Syracuse and Duke, so there are a number of programs expressing interest in him already. Advertisement In November 2023, Marvin Harrison Jr. had an honest assessment of Jett, per Lantern Sports. "He's great. He's definitely more talented than I ever was at that age," Marvin Harrison Jr. said. "He sees me here [at Ohio State] and naturally he wants to follow in my footsteps." At the time, Jett was just 14 years old, and now he has an offer in place from Ohio State as he looks to follow in his brother's footsteps.
