Ohio State Buckeyes’ wide receiver, Marvin Darnell Harrison Jr. was born on August 11, 2002. In 2003, he received All-American honours and the Richter-Howard Receiver of the Year award. Touted as the best WR, Harrison Jr. is poised for a bright future and is also considered one of the top 5 picks in the upcoming NFL draft by many.

Billed at an impressive height of 6’4 and a weight of 205 lbs, the young boy from Philadelphia is known for his impressive speed, athleticism, and movement skills. For his skillset, the star WR from Philadelphia should thank his father who was also a top WR in the NFL. The talented WR draws inspiration from his father’s achievements. But who is his father? Who is Harrison Jr.’s mother, and what is the story about his sports legacy in football?

Marvin Harrison and his family of elite Wide Receivers

Marvin Harrison Jr. is the son of Latoia Titus and Marvin Harrison, who got married in 2003. Although not much is known about his mother, his father was a renowned WR for the Indianapolis Colts for 13 years. Harrison’s talents impressed the Colts and drafted him in the first round of the 1996 NFL drafts. He formed a formidable pair with NFL legend Peyton Manning to win the Super Bowl LXI and held the record for most receptions (143) in a single season until 2019.

The couple has four children together, including Marvin Harrison Jr. and his younger son, Jett Harrison. Born in 2004, Jett is a junior who also plays as a WR at St. Joseph’s Preparatory School in Philadelphia. It looks like football runs deep in the Harrison family lineage with a special liking for the WR position.
