Elic Ayomanor vs Marvin Harrison: Who Should You Start?
Elic Ayomanor and Marvin Harrison are both viable fantasy wide receivers heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Elic Ayomanor averaged 6.0 PPG across 16 games with the Tennessee Titans, while Marvin Harrison posted 8.9 PPG in 12 appearances for the Arizona Cardinals.
A 2.9-PPG gap gives Marvin Harrison the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Elic Ayomanor turned 89 targets into 515 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Marvin Harrison converted 73 looks into 608 yards and 4 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One scheduling note: Elic Ayomanor is off Week 5 and Marvin Harrison Week 11. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
