The Seahawks announced on Thursday the players it was placing on the Physically Unable to Perform list prior to the beginning of training camp, and one name on there was a big, potentially expensive surprise.

That would be Percy Harvin -- who was acquired by Seattle in exchange for a first-round pick and two other draft selections to the Vikings and who then signed a six-year, $67 million contract with $25.5 million worth of guarantees.

NFL.com writes that Harvin might have suffered a slight labrum tear in his hip and that he'll seek a second opinion next week. For now, it's unclear when Harvin will return to action (though his inclusion on the PUP list would allow him to begin practicing immediately after coming off it).

CBSSports.com's Jason La Canfora reports that Harvin has yet to finalize the second opinion on his hip. If surgery is required, as the first doctor recommended, his season is likely over.

Looking like Rick Spielman might have gotten the better of the Seachickens in this trade.

1. Wouldn't be the first time the Vikings fucked the Hawks..

Steve Hutchinson springs to mind... in any case, local fishwrap was saying even with surgery he should only miss the first half of the season, which would bring him back just in time for a playoff run. I think Wilson has enough good targets anyway with Tate, Baldwin and Rice. Not to mention the dozen or so tight ends they're starting camp with lol.
