Percy Harvin could be out until playoffs

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Percy Harvin could be out until the playoffs as he recovers from hip soreness that has plagued him in recent weeks.

The wide receiver missed Monday night's NFL encounter, as the Hawks beat New Orleans Saints 34-7 at Century Link Field.

NFL Network has suggested that the Hawks may decide to give Harvin enough time out to enable the player to feel fresh for potential postseason action.

The Seahawks currently hold top spot in the NFC Western Division, with a record of 11-1.
