The NFL season is set to begin and for fantasy owners keeping an eye on injuries is crucial and for any owners looking for a steal at wide receiver, picking up Percy Harvin or drafting him late as a wideout in drafts could end up being a huge move, as the Seattle Seahawks star says he is making progress in his recovery from hip surgery.
According to ESPN.com, Harvin wrote on Twitter that he is making "serious" progress in his return from hip surgery and that is welcome news for fantasy owners hoping that he could come back this season. Harvin is going to miss at least the first six games after being traded from the Minnesota Vikings and he also could be back on the field by Week 15 after being placed on the PUP list Harvin is a game changing wideout and while the Seahawks will be without him most of the season, their offseason should be explosive.
Harvin will need time to get into a rhythm, in practice and Week 7 against the Arizona Cardinals is a very early estimate about when he could return and it likely will be sometime in the winter that he is back. Last season Harvin had 677 yards and 62 catches despite missing time and he will be a very intriguing option for the Seahawks when he returns.
Marques Colston and Malcom Floyd were dealing with injuries ehading into Week 1, but it appears both players will be on the field for the opening week of the season. Colston could be a nice start against the Falcons in Week 1, as the team has some issues at corner and he played very well against them last season, while Floyd is set to play in San Diego against Houston.
The Chargers desperately need Floyd back and healthy after losing Danario Alexander and according to ESPN.com, Eddie Royal will also get some extended looks and Floyd will be on the field for Week 1.
