Arizona Cardinals receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. did not have the season many envisioned him as the No. 4 pick in the 2024 NFL draft. He had a solid rookie season and looks to be better in year 2.

Entering 2025, in PFF’s rankings of the top 32 receivers in the league, Harrison makes the cut. He comes in at No. 25 in Tier 5.

Harrison Jr.’s rookie season may have felt underwhelming at times, but it was far from poor. He earned a 77.2 receiving grade overall and a 91.8 grade against single coverage, highlighting his ability to win one-on-one matchups as a true No. 1 receiver.

Harrison definitely looked like a rookie at times. He wasn’t always on the same page as quarterback Kyler Murray.

But with 62 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns, it was one of the best rookie pass-catching seasons in team history.

His 62 receptions are second in franchise history for rookie catches, trailing only Anquan Boldin’s 101-catch rookie season in 2003. His 885 yards are also the second-most receiving yards by a rookie, trailing Boldin’s 1,377. His eight receiving touchdowns as a rookie tied the franchise rookie record that matched Larry Fitzgerald and Boldin. And he did it with tight end Trey McBride having a record-setting season for the franchise.

He should jump into the Tier 4 and perhaps even Tier 3 in 2025.
