Harvin participating in early portion of practice

Vikings rookie receiver Percy Harvin, who sat out of Wednesday's session with a shoulder injury, was working with his teammates at the early portion of practice open to reporters. Meanwhile, Vikings offensive linemen Steve Hutchinson (back) and Phil Loadholt (ankle) were also participating. Loadholt missed Sunday's win in St. Louis, and he was replaced in the lineup by Artis Hicks. Receiver Darius Reynaud had shoulder pads on, but he was not working in the early part of practice.
