Well that holdout didn’t last long. After missing only two days of training camp, Percy Harvin signed a five-year rookie contract and made it to Minnesota in time for Sunday’s camp. “I don’t think anybody was more anxious to get on the field than me today,” Harvin said.

“It’s a dream come true,” Harvin said after his first official practice. “For me, there was a lot of bumps that prevented myself from getting to this point. It seemed to be a little farther than it actually was. But to actually get here, everything’s behind me. I can kind of start over here. I’m just glad to be here and thankful and ready to hit the ground running.”

I can’t wait to see what the Vikings do with Percy in camp and in the preseason games. I’m sure they won’t show too much, leaving opposing defenses surprised when they see him on the field. But that doesn’t mean he won’t get worked hard. “We’re going to challenge him,” Childress said. “It’s not like we’re going to spoon feed him.”

What will PErcy’s role be on the Vikings? “Return man. Slot. A little bit in the backfield,” Harvin said. “The motions. The screens. I’m looking to be all over.”
