On a bye bonus: Marvin Harrison Jr. – Ohio State

First on our list is Marvin Harrison Jr., son of Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison, a standout player at Ohio State but he is on a bye in week 5, so he gets honorable mention. His incredible athleticism and intimidating size at 6-foot-4, 205 pounds make him the premier WR force to be reckoned with on the field.

So far, in 2023, Harrison Jr. leads the FBS with 878 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns against single coverage. His dominant performance in the 2023 season has set him up as a potential blue-chip prospect for the 2024 NFL Draft. Harrison Jr. is renowned for his speed and ability to beat defenders on the field.

His statistics for the 2023 season are pretty impressive, with 17 receptions, 336 receiving yards, and three total touchdowns. Harrison Jr.’s game is not just about physicality; he also possesses a high football IQ, understanding how to exploit defenses and find pockets of space in the secondary.

In the thrilling and resonating win in South Bend last week, Harrison Jr. only pulled down only three catches for 32 yards. Ohio State is on a Bye this week, but he should rebound statistically against little Tua and the Maryland Terapins’ porous backfield next week.
