Buffalo86 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 (edited) Percy Harvin plans to retire -- for real this time. The wide receiver is not participating in this year's free agency, agent Greg Barnett told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "He's done [playing]," Barnett said. Harvin, 28, retired in April 2016 but returned to the Bills last November after Buffalo suffered injuries to several of its wide receivers. Playing in two games, Harvin caught two passes for six yards before migraine headaches caused the Bills to place him on the non-football illness list, ending his season. Harvin has dealt with migraine issues throughout his NFL career. The mercurial receiver was a first-round pick of the Vikings in 2009 and was named the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year. In 2013 the Vikings traded him to the Seahawks, whom he helped win Super Bowl XLVIII against the Broncos with an 87-yard kickoff return touchdown. However, locker-room conflict with teammates in Seattle prompted Harvin to be traded to the Jets in 2014 before he followed then-coach Rex Ryan to the Bills in 2015. Harvin started the first five games of the 2015 season, catching 19 passes for 218 yards and one touchdown before knee and hip injuries ended his season and led to his first retirement. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18909464/agent-says-wide-receiver-percy-harvin-retiring-nfl Edited March 14, 2017 by Buffalo86
H2o Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 He got an easy extra couple mill last year. Now he can live comfortably.
johnwalter Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 this may be the lowest bar for an "era" i have yet to encounter on these boards
frostbitmic Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 I'm sure that if we offer him a few million he'll come back for a week or two, maybe even catch a ball.
Augie Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 He's waiting for the perfect desperate storm, and a couple million more. It's his MO. Ohh, then the injury/migraines/don't give a crap... That's how it goes.
BillsfaninMyrtleBeach Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Was great in his day. That day has passed. If he takes another vicious hit he probably would shatter like glass. Call it a career while you still can walk Percy.
DDD Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 He got an easy extra couple mill last year. Now he can live comfortably. Like Shawn Merriman to Buddy Nix, Harvin fleeced Whaley.
scottdoomed Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 just sprinkle some stuff on him. hell be back
TheElectricCompany Posted March 15, 2017 Posted March 15, 2017 Was great in his day. He never had a 1000 yard season, never scored more than 6 TDs in a season and always struggled with injuries. For all the "explosive", "gamechanger", "playmaker" hype, he was a complete tease. He's one of the most overhyped players I've seen in the league recently
LABILLBACKER Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I'm sure that if we offer him a few million he'll come back for a week or two, maybe even catch a ball. And he'll say he's fine feels great and is ready to go. This guy is nothing more than a common Thief. And this just further exemplifies how embarrassing the organization can be in signing somebody like this or Reggie Bush...
Houston's #1 Bills Fan Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 If we were to structure a new deal in which we pay Percy in Advil, would that work?
Samwell Tarly Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Now for the real question, how many comp picks do we get for this?
KD in CA Posted March 19, 2017 Posted March 19, 2017 Certainly one of the most overrated players of his 'era', but that's about it. He won't be missed.
