After a slow start in Week 1, Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. stepped it up with an electric Week 2 performance.

Harrison Jr. showed doubters that he is the real deal, but good things take time.

In the first quarter of the Week 2 dominant win over the Los Angeles Rams, Marvin Harrison Jr. gave Cardinals fans what they have longed for since his name was announced as the fourth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

On top of that, he broke a rookie record set by none other than his dad Marvina Harrison Sr. with the Indianapolis Colts in 1996.

Harrison Jr. had four catches, two for touchdowns in the first quarter of the game.

While fans may be jubilant, Harrison Jr. still sees plenty of room for improvement. In fact, he was upset that Kyler Murray's four incompletions on the day were his targets. 

Most importantly, the Cardinals take confidence in this team win as they move forward and prepare for the Week 3 home game against the Detroit Lions.
