The Arizona Cardinals could be getting their No. 1 wide receiver back soon.
According to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com, head coach Jonathan Gannon said that wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. Would return to practice on Wednesday.
"WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (Heel) will be at practice today, Jonathan Gannon said. It should be noted the [Arizona Cardinals] are holding just a walkthough Wednesday. Not open to media," Urban reported.
This is obviously a good sign for Harrison's chances of returning this week, as his participation is the first since he suffered a heel injury in Week 13
It is important to note, however, that Harrison's participation is just an estimation with the Cardinals not holding a real practice, so he certainly isn't out of the woods yet.
Bad news for Michael Wilson
If Harrison does return, it would be bad news for fellow wideout Michael Wilson, who has been electric with Harrison out but hasn't done much when the Cardinals wideout has been in the lineup.
When including his two games missed because of an appendectomy, Harrison has missed four of the last five games.
In the four games Harrison has been out, Wilson has posted stat lines of 15/185/0, 10/118/0, 11/142/2 and 5/54/1. In the one game Harrison has played in that span, Wilson posted just three catches for 36 scoreless yards.
If history tells us anything, it's that Wilson will return to irrelevance once Harrison is back, and that could very well happen as soon as this week.
This puts fantasy football owners who have been riding Wilson's hot streak in a tough spot.
Wilson has been one of the most productive wide receivers in fantasy in recent weeks, but it'll be hard to depend on him this week given what we know about Wilson's production whenever Harrison plays.
