Percy Harvin cleared to play in Super Bowl

The Seattle Seahawks have confirmed that Percy Harvin has passed the final part of the NFL's concussion protocol, allowing him to play in the Super Bowl.

The wide receiver sustained the head injury during the divisional round of the playoffs earlier this month, forcing him to miss last week's NFC championship game win over the San Francisco 49ers.

Harvin, who has played just two games for the Seahawks since joining from the Minnesota Vikings last off-season, was able to return to practice with the NFC West side on Wednesday.

The Seahawks will face the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl next Sunday.
