Colts wide receiver Harrison moves past Reed on career receptions list

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Marvin Harrison moved past Andre Reed and into fourth place on the NFL's career receptions list Sunday with his 952nd catch.

He passed Reed with a 14-yard reception, his third catch of the game, 37 seconds into the third quarter against the New York Jets.

It's the second time in three weeks Harrison has moved up on the career receptions chart. He passed Art Monk for fifth against Houston on Sept. 17.

Harrison also tied Marshall Faulk's NFL record for most consecutive games with a reception to start a career, catching a pass in his 158th straight game. He tied the mark with a 12-yard reception just before the two-minute warning in the second quarter.

Harrison entered the game 10th on the career list with 12,665 career yards receiving, behind Monk (12,721) and Irving Fryar (12,785).

The 11-year veteran's next quest is to become the fourth player in league history with 1,000 catches. The other three are Jerry Rice (1,549), Cris Carter (1,101) and Tim Brown (1,094).
