What happened: Jonathan Jones wrote that the Houston Texans paid a steep price to acquire wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., betting that his prior rapport with quarterback C.J. Stroud will unlock his ceiling. The move reunites the former Ohio State teammates after Houston finalized the trade earlier this week.

Why it matters: Houston is counting on a change of scenery and an established quarterback connection to elevate Harrison's production after he caught 41 passes for 608 yards and four touchdowns across 12 games in 2025. Pairing the 2024 No. 4 overall pick with Stroud, the 2023 No. 2 overall pick, gives the Texans a high-pedigree tandem for the regular season.

What to watch: Harrison prepares for his Houston debut alongside Stroud as the Texans take the field in Week 6.
