[Barthawk]

Anyone see of Zack Miller was in a boot?

Nope... jersey, shorts and hat

Well, if true, the fact that the team thinks he can practice and play through it is a minor good thing.

I typically refrain from getting on players for not playing through pain, but gee, I would like it if Harvin got out there and earned that big contract he just got from our team.

If he has surgery.. per this link:

How long is the recovery time?
Recovery time is approximately three to four months, and it ultimately is determined by how much work needs to be done and how much healing needs to occur before the patient can be allowed to return to activities.

How does one tear their hip labrum before camp begins?

 

[theENGLISHseahawk]

Very, very concerning.

FFS.

Probably at OTAs.

Might be a blessing that we have Golden Tate in a contract year.

Is there any contact at OTA's?

It's not the time to panic yet. Florio is a muckraker and if there is ANY chance that the injury requires surgery of course he is going to put it in a headline to generate more web traffic. Just because there is a chance that Harvin needs surgery, it doesn't mean there is a GOOD chance he needs surgery.

No sense getting worried about this until we know more.

Minimal. It's no-pads.

I think there is plenty of sense to worry, but not panic.

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Yeah, the fact that the Seahawks staff thinks he can play and practice through it sounds as good as it could sound.

Now, if they about-face on that in the next week...

I agree, and i'm not panicking either way.. Yes it would be a big loss, but we had a solid recieving crew last year without him.. I also look at it as more motivation for Baldwin to get back to his rookie year production form..

Ian Rapoport is the one posting the possibility of surgery.

Weren't they trying the same thing about Michael Bennett?

I'm more concerned by the fact Harvin decided to get this looked at in late July than anything else. Doubt he tore the labrum recently.

[Seafan]

It may have been torn before he signed the contract. It will be interesting to see if he gives the season a go or not.

Yes I know, but just because surgery is POSSIBLE doesn't necessarily mean it's LIKELY, and the tone of the post on PFT makes it sound like surgery is all but inevitable.

As I said in another thread, remember that this is the same site that spun a theory about Sidney Rice getting cut to save cap space out of thin air. PFT is a good place to get news but it's a rumor site at heart. The juicier the rumor, the more traffic they get.

This could all turn out to be much ado about nothing. If Harvin does need surgery, then that will royally suck, but there is nothing to suggest that he is likely to need surgery, only that it COULD happen.
