  • Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. left Sunday's game against the Colts in the second quarter due to a concussion after hitting his head on the turf following a 21-yard catch.

  • Harrison, who recorded two catches for 32 yards before leaving, will not return to the game, marking his second concussion in the NFL.

  • He was evaluated for a concussion at the sideline injury tent, walked to the locker room, and was ruled out at the start of the second half.

  • Harrison's absence in the second half impacted the Cardinals' offensive performance, which scored two touchdowns but ultimately lost 31-27 to the Colts.

  • He finished his rookie season with 62 catches, 885 yards, and eight touchdowns.

  • Harrison has been Arizona's top pass-catcher this season with 20 receptions for 306 yards, showing improvement despite some criticism about target numbers.

  • Jonathan Taylor's late 1-yard touchdown run sealed the victory for the Colts, overcoming the Cardinals' efforts.

  • This game was Harrison's first in Indianapolis, where his Hall of Fame father played for the Colts, making the matchup personally significant for him.

  • Arizona's quarterback Kyler Murray explained that Harrison's lower target count was due to game plan strategies, not a lack of effort or talent.

  • This is Harrison's second concussion in the NFL; he previously suffered one in Week 6 of the previous season but returned the following week.

  • He will need to clear the league's concussion protocol before returning to play.
