Last year Vikings receiver Percy Harvin sat out the league’s annual rookie symposium with an illness, and there were reports that he’d be required to go to this year’s symposium to make up what he missed.
But with this year’s symposium coming up, Harvin has been excused.
An NFL spokesman told Judd Zulgad of the Star Tribune that the league will not require Harvin to attend the symposium because “he received the appropriate training during the season at the club level through the Vikings’ player development department.”
The four-day rookie symposium will begin Sunday.
