We just don’t know where he’s being traded.
ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter reported on Saturday morning, October 10, that Harrison Jr. will be traded away from Arizona. It’s unclear, though, which NFL franchise will be trading for him.
“The Cardinals informed Harrison that he will be inactive for Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions as the trade is completed, sources said. Harrison was not at the Cardinals team meetings Saturday night, sources told ESPN’s Josh Weinfuss,” ESPN reported.
“One team that has had talks with Arizona is Houston, which has been, and is thought to be, squarely in the mix for Harrison, sources told Schefter and Rapoport. If Harrison is traded to the Texans, he would be reunited with his college quarterback C.J. Stroud.”
A few NFL franchises have already been ruled out, including the Kansas City Chiefs and the Indianapolis Colts.

But perhaps the results of Sunday’s Week 5 NFL games will have an impact on where he’s traded.
Sunday’s games expected to play major factor
Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio believes Sunday’s games will play a major factor in where MHJ ends up.
“Then there’s the possibility that a contender will lose a starting receiver due to injury during Sunday’s games. Suddenly, a team that wasn’t in the mix for Harrison could revisit its position, quickly,” he wrote.
“Nothing is ever done until it’s done. Sunday’s games could change the entire dynamic for a Harrison trade.”
