Marvin Harrison to Be Introduced at Hall of Fame by Colts Owner Jim Irsay

Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay announced on Sunday he will introduce legendary wide receiver Marvin Harrison at the Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Ceremony on Aug. 6.

Irsay posted the news on Twitter, explaining that longtime Colts quarterback Peyton Manning gave him some perspective on how accomplished the wideout was:

An eight-time Pro Bowler who ranks third on the NFL's all-time list with 1,102 receptions, Harrison played all 13 seasons of his NFL career for the Colts, becoming Manning's go-to target.

Harrison also ranks fifth in receiving touchdowns with 128 and seventh in receiving yards with 14,580—just ahead of the 14,345-yard total longtime teammate Reggie Wayne recorded primarily with Manning under center.

It will be a proud day for Indianapolis when Harrison is enshrined in Canton, Ohio, as part of an eight-member 2016 Hall of Fame class, which also features former Colts head coach Tony Dungy. He helped Harrison and Manning earn elusive championship rings with a win in Super Bowl XLI.

The Colts won at least 10 games in nine of Harrison's final 10 seasons with the team. His apex came in 2002, when he logged an NFL-record 143 catches for 1,722 yards to go with 11 scores.
