"I’d be sick of Kyler Murray too": NFL fans react as Marvin Harrison Jr. gets ruled out for Cardinals vs 49ers after appendicitis surgery

Atlanta Falcons wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. has been ruled out of the team's Week 11 clash against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Falcons coach Jonathan Gannon said on Wednesday that Harrison won't be available to face San Francisco since the wideout had surgery for appendicitis this week.

When fans on social media found out that Harrison won't play against the 49ers, they shared some wild reactions.

"I’d be sick of Kyler Murray too," one tweeted in reference to Murray's struggles as Atlanta's quarterback.

"He’ll still get more targets than he had from Kyler," another added. "He might as well stay out till Kylers back. 12 targets 3 catches with that bum Jacoby under center last week," a third commented.

Others wished Harrison a speedy recovery.

"Hopefully he recovers quickly. There’s a point where it’s football and there’s a point when we need to remember these are human beings. This is from a 49ers fan. Get well, and REST," a user tweeted. "Hope he recovers quick, in the meantime my lord McBride might have 20 catches," another added. "Just when it was starting to look a lil better for his season with Jacoby," one wrote.

The Falcons are third in the NFC South on a four-game losing streak. To make matters worse, Atlanta has some injuries to deal with heading into Week 11.

Zay Jones (Achilles tendon) and Simi Fehoko (arm) are on the injured reserve list. With Harrison out, the Falcons have only three healthy receivers on their roster — Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch and Xavier Weaver.

Marvin Harrison Jr. has been one of the better-performing players for the Cardinals this season. He has played in all nine games so far, catching 34 passes for 525 yards and four touchdowns.

Harrison caught touchdown passes in each of his past two games. However, he will miss his first game of the season against the 49ers on Sunday.

The Falcons still have a slight chance of making the playoffs, but will need their best players, including Harrison, back in action soon, to try and turn the tide.
