Marvin Harrison
Indianapolis, IN (Sports Network) – Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison, an eight-time Pro Bowler who has not played since mid-October, practiced both Wednesday and Thursday and is expected to start in Sunday’s AFC Divisional playoff matchup with the San Diego Chargers.
Harrison has been out since October 22 with a knee injury, and though Colts head coach Tony Dungy wouldn’t guarantee anything, it seems likely the 12-year veteran will be in Indianapolis’ lineup against the Chargers.
"I probably can’t say without any doubt that he’ll play," said Dungy Wednesday afternoon. "I thought he might play the last week (of the regular season) and it didn’t work out that way. He’s practicing and we’re planning on him starting, but we’ll have to see how it goes."
Harrison has 20 catches for 247 yards and one touchdown in six games this season. He initially sustained the injury in a September 30 win over Denver, and left the game during the Colts’ Week 7 win over the Jaguars. Harrison then proceeded to miss the next 10 games – the longest stretch he has sat out in his NFL career.
