Seahawks WR Percy Harvin had been on track to return a couple of weeks ago, but he suffered a setback when his hip reportedly "flared up" in practice. Carroll hopes to have him back on the practice field next week. "He had another excellent day. He's not ready to play this week," Carroll said Friday, per The (Everett, Wash.) Herald. "All of the signs are really encouraging. He feels good. He's not having any issues after he works out the next day, so I think we've built up enough days here to take a real good positive step. I don't know what that means in terms of playing next week, but we're hoping he'll be able to get some extra work and really jump back into it." Source: NFL.com SteveRobWhatever's Take: Seahawks are close to getting Russell Okung and Breno Giacomini back as well. This offense has been sluggish of late thanks to the rash of injuries. Getting Harvin back will be huge, especially with the loss of Sidney Rice. Harvin brings a big-play element the Seahawks currently lacks.
