The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ...It was a busy day of news on the Harvin front and it got busier on Wednesday afternoon when Harvin skipped practice at the Vikings’ mandatory mini-camp.
Diehards Line:Harvin was present at a walkthrough on Wednesday morning, but was nowhere to be seen during the afternoon practice. Unless the Vikings excused his absence, Harvin could be fined for skipping the practice. HC Leslie Frazier said he didn’t know if Harvin, who reportedly requested a trade (a request that won't be granted) a day after hinting at a training camp holdout, would be with the team on Thursday. As PFT's Josh Alper suggests, the Vikings can’t afford not to have Harvin on their offense this season, something that Harvin surely knows as he plots his next move. And, based on all that’s gone down in the last couple of days, there will be a next move.
