It looks like Percy Harvin will be able to play in the Super Bowl in New Jersey in two weeks. Seahawk Coach Pete Carroll said Harvin could be back to practice later this week.

The former Pro Bowl wide reciever missed Sunday's NFC championship game win over San Francisco after suffering a concussion a week earlier in the divisional playoff win over New Orleans. Harvin was not cleared by doctors in time to play against the 49ers.

Harvin could be cleared in time to practice as early as tomorrow.

Harvin had three receptions against New Orleans before getting hurt late in the first half. It was the second game of the season for Harvin, who had hip surgery in August.

Meanwhile Carroll says after speaking with cornerback Richard Sherman he was apologetic that his rant against San Francisco's Michael Crabtree overshadowed the team.

Sherman lit up social media after his shouting postgame interview with Fox reporter Erin Andrews then didn't back down from his comments toward Crabtree, later calling him "mediocre."

Sherman's rant came after he batted down a pass to Crabtree at the end of Sundays win over the 49'ers.
