Report: Jets expected to release the speedy Percy Harvin

The revolving door is in full swing in the Big Apple.

The New York Jets -- who traded for Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall on Friday -- are expected to release receiver Percy Harvin, according to a report from NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. The Jets have a glut of options at the position thanks to Marshall's arrival and Harvin could end up being the odd man out.

Harvin arrived in New York during the 2014 season via trade with the Seattle Seahawks. He played eight games with the Jets, catching 29 passes for 350 yards and a touchdown; he also played an active role on special teams.

The past two seasons have been tumultuous for Harvin, who spent the first four years of his career as a budding star with the Minnesota Vikings after being a first-round pick (No. 22 overall) in 2009. However, his time there ended on a sour note and he was eventually traded to the Seahawks in March of 2013.

Despite returning a kickoff for a touchdown during Seattle's blowout victory over the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII, Harvin's time in the Pacific Northwest was also considered a disappointment as he battled various injuries and eventually grew dissastisfied with his role in the offense -- leading to reports of infighting with teammates in his final days in Seattle before the Seahawks shipped him out.
