Things have not gone the way the Arizona Cardinals hoped for wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. this season.
Harrison struggled with drops earlier in the year, and now he has been dealing with multiple injuries in recent weeks that have forced him to miss four games over the previous five weeks.
First, Harrison needed an appendectomy that forced him to miss two games, and then he came down with a heel injury upon his return and has since missed two more contests, including Week 15.
As we turn the page to Week 16, here's what we know about Harrison's status for the game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
Will Marvin Harrison Jr. return in Week 16?
Harrison's status remain up in the air as we enter Week 16, but given the fact that he has missed two games already, we would say he has a slightly better than 50/50 chance to suit up.
Last week, head coach Jonathan Gannon said he anticipates Harrison playing again this season, although he did not say when the wide receiver would return.
He did say, however, that Harrison is "doing a lot better."
Harrison didn't practice at all last week, so that pushes the needle more toward him not being ready to go.
While the Cardinals being out of playoff contention really gives them no reason to bring Harrison back at all, Gannon might also be fighting for his job, which means he'll want all hands on deck over the final three games.
We'll get our next update on Harrison on Wednesday, when the Cardinals drop their first injury report of the week. Getting in a limited practice would be a step in the right direction for the second-year wideout.
