Fantasy Football News - The Minnesota Vikings have placed Percy Harvin on injured reserve ending his season. Earlier today it was found out that Percy had suffered a grade 3 sprained ankle one month ago. Much worse than previously thought. The time-table for such a sprain is generally 4-6 weeks. He suffered the sprain on Nov. 4th meaning that a return to the field would be in sight soon. The move to put Harvin on IR was a bit of a shock, he had to have suffered a setback in practice. And with the season slipping, it’s prudent for the Vikings to get Percy healthy and ready to go in 2013.
