Every year I hear "What if the Jets" when referring to Harvin. Seems like he may be out for the season before it even starts.

Harvin Getting Second Opinion On Hip

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Percy Harvin announced via Twitter on Tuesday night that he will undergo hip surgery.

It's uncertain how long Harvin will be sidelined.  NFL Network reported early estimations are Harvin will be out three to four months, meaning he would be sidelined until at least November.

Harvin was in New York on Tuesday to receive a second opinion on his injured hip from Dr. Bryan Kelly.

Before seeing Kelly, Harvin saw a first doctor who believed there was a tear in Harvin's hip, according to a source. There are reports that Harvin injured his labrum, although the team has not identified the exact nature of the injury, nor has it named which hip Harvin injured.

Harvin finished his last season in Minnesota on injured reserve with an ankle injury that he suffered Nov. 4 in Seattle.

 

 

He signed a six-year, $67 million extension with the Seahawks in the offseason, with $25 million of that guaranteed. Seattle traded a first-round and a seventh-round pick in the 2013 draft and a third-round pick in the 2014 draft to the Vikings for Harvin.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll also said Tuesday that wide receiver Sidney Rice is in Switzerland to have treatment on his knee. Carroll said the procedure didn't involve surgery.

Carroll went on to say he did not expect Rice to miss any games in the preseason or regular season. Rice finished last season with 50 catches for 748 yards and seven touchdowns.
