WESTFIELD, Indiana – Memories are faint for Marvin Harrison Jr., fuzzy from the times he was around the Colts growing up.
His father, Marvin Harrison Sr., was a star in this state. But the only game Harrison Jr. really remembers is being on the sideline for a contest against the Baltimore Ravens. And a Super Bowl. But that’s all.
Yet he smiled Wednesday afternoon, talking about such things with the media before his Cardinals practiced against the Colts at Grand Park Sports Campus for the first of two joint workouts.
“It is kind of crazy,” the rookie wide receiver said. “The first joint practice against the Colts, who would’ve thought that?”
Harrison Sr. played seven seasons with the Colts after Harrison Jr. was born in August of 2002. Coincidentally, Harrison Sr. set career-highs in catches (143), yards (1,722) and yards per game (107.6) in 2002.
Now, though, it’s his son’s time for a franchise in the desert.
“I made it at this point, with my own path,” Harrison Jr. said. “I just want to work hard and see where it takes me.”
That’s been quiet so far, although it’s fitting with Harrison Jr.’s quiet personality. He has stood out in practice, but only played three snaps against the Saints in the preseason opener and did not get a target. Coach Jonathan Gannon reiterated he wouldn’t make a decision about who would play in Saturday’s game until after Thursday’s work.
