Percy Harvin has severe sprained ankle, fantasy status a ‘longshot’ for Week 10
Percy Harvin is on crutches and has his ankle sprained in three different parts, making him a longshot to play in Week 10. We break down the fantasy implications.

Harvin suffered the injury in Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks that sent him to the sidelines. He finished the game, but was only a decoy as he badly limped around.
Fantasy Impact: This is a crushing blow to the Vikings heading into a crucial divisional matchup with Detroit. It’s also a crushing blow to fantasy owners heading into playoff races.
If Harvin is able to practice this week, then I would feel better about his game status, but fantasy owners should start hunting for a Plan B right now.
