"Percy" Harvin I (born May 28, 1988) is an American football wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Florida, when the Gators won the BCS National Championship in 2006 and 2008, and was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the first round of the 2009 NFL Draft.

Harvin also played for the Seattle Seahawks and New York Jets. He won Super Bowl XLVIII with the Seahawks against the Denver Broncos. As a rookie, he was the Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year. He attended and played football for Landstown High School in Virginia Beach, where his team won the high school state championship in 2004.

Harvin was born to William Percival Harvin, Jr. and wife Linda in Chesapeake, Virginia, where after his father's departure, he lived with his mother and his older sister, Lintera. His mother Linda ran a daycare out of their home as Harvin helped with the children. Harvin's mother ran track at Princess Anne High School in Virginia Beach and later coached an AAU track team. His sister, Lintera, also ran track, both at Salem High School in Virginia Beach and at Eastern Michigan University. As a child, Harvin was a gifted athlete whose prowess was first noted as a six-year-old flag football participant. At age 13, he played for coach Bruce Pearl and the Virginia Beach Mustangs Pop Warner football team, leading the team to a national championship.
