I feel for the guy. I get migraines about once a month, and they're no joke. It must be miserable having them as often as Harvin does.

He missed time last year due to Migranes. They must be serious because you know he's getting a lot of attention from the medical staff and he's still missing time.

Vikings off-season isn't exactly going as planned.

I'm surprised they don't all have migraines from you-know-who.

Yeah...I've never heard of a player missing a game due to a migraine. I think he only missed one game, but still...that's unbelievable.

Haha I'm sure he-who-must-not-be-named has given plenty of Vikings headaches. I can't help but find it hilarious. Childress' job security depends on how many times he kisses ***** *****'s feet. Too funny.

What worries me about this is that those migraines may be a sign of something worse - particularly concussions.

This is what's truly scary about this story, my friends.

Very good point. Is it documented that he ever had concussions in College? Maybe some in high school. Cause these migraines have really been nagging at him.

I can't find a legit source on whether Percy has a history with migraines dating back to high school or college, but I've seen some interesting posts on articles...this one for example:

[quote] Harvin did not have a problem with migraines in college and failed a drug test. He gets into the NFL and passes drug tests and gets migraines. How easy is this. [/quote] -Poster from link below. There could actually be some truth to that. Percy does have a troubled past...
