Fantasy Impact: Harvin had three receptions for 22 yards off six targets, and 12 yards rushing off three carries. He was still an important part of the Vikings’ gameplan, but the offense was sluggish as a whole and there weren’t a ton of total snaps to work with. He should still be considered a good WR1/WR2 option going forward, especially considering all of the different ways he can potentially contribute fantasy value.
