Pete Carroll: Percy Harvin is "very close" to return

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has revealed that wide receiver Percy Harvin is "very close" to making his return from injury.

Harvin missed the first six games of the season after being placed on his side's physically unable to perform list when he sustained a hip problem during the Seahawks' training camp.

Carroll told ESPN: "He is getting very close everybody should be very encouraged that he's not too far off now."

Seattle moved to 5-1 in their season with victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
