Cardinals Marvin Harrison Jr. Adds Muscle Ahead 2025 Season

Marvin Harrison Jr., the Arizona Cardinals' wide receiver, is entering his second NFL season with a noticeably bulkier physique after naturally gaining muscle through a focused diet. Weighing more than his rookie season's 209 pounds, Harrison believes the added muscle will help him in contested catch situations and after the catch, potentially improving his durability over the long season. Despite his productive rookie year with 62 receptions, 885 yards, and eight touchdowns, Harrison remains open to adjusting his weight during offseason workouts and training camp depending on how he feels. His rookie stats closely mirrored those of his Hall of Fame father, Marvin Harrison Sr., and he aims to build on that foundation by surpassing the 1,000-yard mark in 2025. The Cardinals have also been strengthening their defense in the offseason, which could support Harrison’s offensive efforts. Fans and analysts are watching closely to see how his physical transformation will translate into on-field success in the upcoming season.
