Harrison, who was a standout receiver at Ohio State before being drafted by the Cardinals with the No. 4 overall pick in the NFL draft, reportedly signed the contract with Fanatics in 2023. However, details of the contract were redacted, and Harrison has publicly denied its existence.

Interestingly, Harrison does not have an agent and has been represented by his father, Hall of Fame receiver Marvin Harrison. Furthermore, Harrison Jr. has not yet signed the NFL Players Association’s group licensing agreement, which would allow the association to market his name, image, and likeness.

As of now, the Cardinals have not provided any immediate response to inquiries from The Associated Press regarding this matter.
