Officially, Harrison is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup, although he reportedly is expected to play. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Cardinals plan to ease Harrison back into action against Atlanta.

The second half of the season has been rough for the former first-round pick, as he missed time after undergoing surgery to remove his appendix and then was injured in his first game back in the lineup. Harrison has appeared in just 10 games for Arizona in the 2025 season.
Overall, the young receiver has 40 catches (on 69 targets) for 594 yards and four scores. He's played 76.7 percent of the Cardinals' offensive snaps this season, but Harrison has not turned into the dominant No. 1 receiver that the team hoped he would be when it took him No. 4 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.
With Harrison likely playing a more limited role in Week 16, the SI Betting team is looking elsewhere in the Arizona passing game for a prop bet on Sunday.

Earlier this week, SI Betting's Iain MacMillan shared his favorite props for this game, and he's eyeing Michael Wilson to have a big game against Atlanta:
Michael Wilson Anytime Touchdown (+125)
Michael Wilson has been fantastic of late. Over his last five games, he has combined for 44 receptions for 535 yards and three touchdowns. He has become a primary target for the Cardinals' offense, so let's bet on him to score a touchdown at +125.
