Buffalo Bills wide receiver Percy Harvin will return to the field this season if healthy and is reportedly not going to retire, according to NFL reporter Ian Rapoport.
Harvin was reportedly contemplating retirement after suffering another hip injury. Harvin informed the team last week he "needed to take some time for personal reasons," said general manager Doug Whaley, via ESPN.
Harvin did not travel with the team to London to play the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the team is clearly short handed without starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor and Harvin. The Bills receiver has reportedly become increasingly frustrated with hip and knee injuries, but he is not thinking of retiring.
The severity of Harvin's hip injury is unknown at this time, and no timetable for his return has been stated. "We'll keep that in-house, but I know there's a lot of other things that are going on that it's just not strictly injury-related," said Whaley about Harvin's injury.
Harvin has struggled with injuries throughout his career and has only completed a full 16 game season once in 2011. The Bills receiver has 218 receiving yards and a touchdown this season. It's unclear what Harvin's future in the NFL is, but when healthy, he can be an explosive weapon for any offense.
