I understand his issue with the situation, but he needs to own up to his mistakes also. Like calling Wilson not black enough, criticizing coaching/management, etc.. Also, if there were fights with multiple teammates, then maybe he was part of the problem and not the just the rest of the team?
Percy Harvin confirms he came to blows with Tate, Baldwin in Seattle | For The Win
Percy Harvin confirmed a long-running rumor that he came to blows with two of his former teammates during his time in Seattle, fights that came over battles for reps. In a profile in The Buffalo News, Harvin said that he felt like he was “walking on eggshells” at previous stops and was relieved to be in Buffalo, where he believes he can turn his career around.
The problem with Doug Baldwin and Golden Tate he said, was a position battle that boiled over in the run up to Super Bowl week when he claims he kept hearing that he wasn’t an intricate part of the offense. His fight with Baldwin came the following August.
“I said, ‘I understand the message you’re trying to get out but I’m your teammate. If you don’t want to talk about me at all, just say ‘Hey, we’re a great offense. We’re glad to have him back,’ ” Harvin said. “But every time, it seemed like they were hell-bent on saying, ‘We’re going to be this, whether he’s here or not.’ And it just kind of started rubbing me wrong because those guys, I felt, were my teammates, my brothers.
“I was like, ‘Whoa, buddy, I’m your teammate! Let’s get it together and let’s go out there and kill people. If you all were already doing this, imagine what we could do with me in there!’ But I just kept getting, ‘If he comes back, he comes back. If not, we’re good without him.’ Finally, I wanted to say something.”
Harvin won’t relive the details but ex-teammate Michael Robinson later admitted that he needed to break up a fight between Harvin and Tate.
He also admitted to the newspaper that he fought Tate the week before the Super Bowl. He was traded in October 2014 to the Jets for a conditional draft pick.
