ESPN's John Clayton calls Chicago, Philadelphia, and Tennessee
ESPN's John Clayton calls Chicago, Philadelphia, and Tennessee possible landing spots for free agent Marvin Harrison. Philly makes sense because it's Harrison's hometown, but he probably wouldn't even be an upgrade over Reggie Brown, the Eagles' fourth receiver. The Titans and Bears can both do better. We're guessing Marvin will have to wait to sign with a team that incurs injuries during offseason camps.

Colts agreed to release Marvin Harrison, his agent Tom Condon confirmed to the Associated Press. Harrison, 36, caught 60 passes for 636 yards and five TDs last season, but his 10.6 YPC average was a career low and he's never looked slower. Assuming Marvin doesn't return for a minimum-type deal, Reggie Wayne figures to take his old flanker position with Anthony Gonzalez at split end and Dallas Clark getting more targets. Harrison is likely to see a soft market for his services and may struggle to find a job he deems worth taking.
