Underdog Fantasy Football Show on Marvin Harrison Jr.

Harrison moves to Z role in Houston; historical mid-season trades show production risk.

Harrison is expected to play starter snaps immediately after the trade to Houston, moving to Z receiver rather than X. The Texans want him in breaking routes and slot work, similar to Jaden Higgins' late-2024 role. Historical data shows mid-season traded WRs typically see production downturn (only 3 of many since 2017 improved: Amari Cooper 9.3→17.9, DeAndre Hopkins 6.4→10.9, Devontae Adams 15→17.7). Harrison's tight-window catch rate was poor in his first two NFL seasons, but limiting speed-based routes and focusing on tight-window throws could help. First matchup is Jacksonville (tough draw overseas).
