Fantasy Football News: Receiver Harrison to Undergo Surgery

Marvin Harrison, the Colts' seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver, left mini-camp early on Sunday to return to his hometown of Philadelphia, Pa., where he is scheduled to undergo elbow surgery Monday. Harrison has already gone through wrist surgery this offseason.

"Marvin's going to get his surgery done on his elbow that he's been having trouble with," Colts Head Coach Tony Dungy said Sunday. "It was planned. We just couldn't get a late flight to get him back there in time."

Harrison, who has played in the last seven Pro Bowls, caught 82 passes for a team-high 1,146 yards and a team-high 12 touchdowns last season. He sustained a wrist injury late last season.

"It's just some things he played with and played through," Dungy said. "We just want to get them taken care of. It should be, from what I understand, a very clean procedure, and in about a month be back to normal."
