Bronco Marshall tweaks left hamstring
Disgruntled Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall missed the last hour of practice Sunday after pulling up with an apparent hamstring injury while running a deep sideline route.
He sat out the late afternoon session as well.
Marshall hobbled to the sideline mid-morning, tossed his helmet and dropped to the grass. He didn't return to action, staying on the sideline a few minutes before limping to the trainer's room.
Coach Josh McDaniels said after the morning practice that he wasn't sure how bad Marshall was hurt.
Marshall has had another drama-filled off-season, this time complaining about his contract and requesting a trade four months after appearing in his first Pro Bowl.
He has made several spectacular plays at camp so far, showing no ill effects from off-season hip surgery. Marshall is coming off his second straight 100-catch season.
"If I had a team, I would definitely want him on it," Broncos cornerback Andre' Goodman said. "He's a big guy that runs great routes. He's a competitor - any team wants a receiver like that. We want him healthy."
Harvin signs with Vikings: While many rookies who hold out of training camp fall dangerously behind as their teams practice without them, Percy Harvin took advantage of a luxury that few others enjoy: his friendship with Tim Tebow.
While Harvin's agent Joel Segal negotiated with the Minnesota Vikings, the speedy receiver spent his days on the campus of his alma mater catching passes from Tebow, his Heisman Trophy-winning teammate the past three seasons at Florida.
"He's probably the best thing other than a pro quarterback," Harvin said Sunday, after signing a five-year deal with the Vikings. "Of course he's not a pro quarterback, but I got the best work in I could do without actually being here."
Harvin, the 22nd overall pick, missed the first two days and four practices of training camp, but hopped an early flight from Florida to the Twin Cities to make sure he got there in time for Sunday's practice.
The versatile playmaker is expected to complement Adrian Peterson in Minnesota's ramped-up offense.
No flip-flopping: Once Eric Mangini picks a starting quarterback, the new Cleveland Browns coach intends to stick with him.
Mangini said Sunday that he will not rotate his QBs, that he has no timetable on picking between Derek Anderson and Brady Quinn and that he envisions both players staying on the Browns' roster once the regular season begins.
