@joshweinfuss breaks down the trade to Houston: https://t.co/bEHeaSqMkI Via @ESPNNFL on X

What happened: Both sides completed the move looking to reset after Harrison fell short of expectations during his tenure in Arizona, per ESPN's Josh Weinfuss.

Why it matters: Across 12 games in the 2025 season, Harrison recorded 41 receptions for 608 yards and four touchdowns, per ESPN as of Sept. 29, 2026. The acquisition adds a former first-round wideout to Houston's offense ahead of the Nov. 10 NFL trade deadline.

What to watch: Harrison's target share and snap count in Houston's passing attack will be the primary gauge of his integration as the 2026 regular season progresses.
