TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona Cardinals receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. will miss Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers after having surgery this week for appendicitis.
Coach Jonathan Gannon confirmed the news on Wednesday.
Harrison — a second-year receiver out of Ohio State — has played in all nine games this season, catching 34 passes for 525 yards and four touchdowns. The Cardinals have suffered a wave of injuries at receiver over the past week,
losing Zay Jones (Achilles tendon) and Simi Fehoko (arm), who were both put on injured reserve.
Arizona currently has just three healthy receivers on the roster — Michael Wilson, Greg Dortch and Xavier Weaver.
Gannon also told reporters that linebacker Mack Wilson Sr. (ribs) would not play on Sunday and that linebacker Baron Browning had been placed in concussion protocol.
The Cardinals (3-6) have lost five of their past six games.
