Yahoo Sports NFL on Marvin Harrison Jr.
ArticleHere are the 4 questions that will define fantasy football in Week 6
From the article
Essentially, Harrison would need to displace two of the ancillary options to slide into a WR2 role. But two problems with that idea. First, both Hutchinson (38.9% slot snap rate) and Noel (68.5%) have played in the slot... The bigger obstacle? They've played well!

Harrison faces slot competition from Hutchinson and Noel; deep-ball upside limited without role clarity.
Harrison would need to displace two of Houston's ancillary receivers to establish a WR2 role, but faces two obstacles. Xavier Hutchinson (38.9% slot snap rate) and Jaylin Noel (68.5% slot snap rate) have both played well in the slot—an area where Harrison has yet to play often or efficiently. Hutchinson is the only Texans WR with double-digit first-down catches; Noel and Collins are the only receivers with YPRR over 2.0. Against Jacksonville in Week 6, Harrison may get opportunities on deep targets (Jaguars allow most YPG to WRs), but sustained fantasy relevance requires more time and a continued shift in Houston's offensive approach.
