Urban Meyer: Percy Harvin is 'the greatest player to put on a helmet'
Between Bowling Green, Utah, Florida and Ohio State, Urban Meyer has seen remarkable talent on the football field. Over his 17 years of coaching at the collegiate level, one player stands out as the "greatest." Meyer boasts a star-studded roster of players who made it to the NFL, including Tim Tebow, Cam Newton and Terry McLaurin. He also coached Joey Bosa, Taylor Decker, Ezekiel Elliott and Michael Thomas, all of whom were on Ohio State's national championship team in 2014. Yet, the player Meyer considers the greatest is former Florida wide receiver Percy Harvin. Meyer led the Gators from 2005-2010, and Harvin played for the team from 2006-08, winning two BCS national championships. In a recent episode of "The Triple Option" podcast, Meyer spoke to FOX broadcasters Mark Ingram and Rob Stone about Harvin. "I've said this and not many people disagree who watched him, or played against him, or played with him," Meyer said . "I think he's arguably the greatest player to put on a helmet. He's the most violent runner I've ever had, and Mark, he never got hit. We used to say he'd have eyes on the side and the back of his head. He was extremely smart." Throughout his career at Gainesville, Harvin was a threat both in the air and on the ground. He recorded 133 receptions for 1,929 yards and 13 touchdowns, while also rushing for 1,852 yards and 19 touchdowns. Harvin holds the Florida record for most career yards rushing by a wide receiver (1,852) and the most rushing yards in a single season by a receiver (858 yards in 2007). After his time in Florida, Harvin was selected by the Minnesota Vikings with the 22nd pick in the 2009 NFL Draft. He then won the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. He last played in the NFL in 2016 with the Buffalo Bills. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Is Terry McLaurin attending Commanders minicamp amid contract dispute?
The post Is Terry McLaurin attending Commanders minicamp amid contract dispute? appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Washington Commanders were one of the best stories in the NFL during the 2024 season. Washington immediately became a competitive team with Jayden Daniels at quarterback, who won Offensive Rookie of the Year. Now it seems that Daniels will be without his top weapon during mandatory minicamp. Advertisement Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin is not attending mandatory minicamp, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. McLaurin is seeking a multi-year contract extension and has been away from the team during OTAs. McLaurin is in the final year of his current contract. He is set to earn $16.5 million in base salary in 2025 and has a cap hit of $25.5 million. McLaurin has certainly done enough to warrant a contract extension. He has been nothing but reliable since joining Washington back in 2019. In fact, McLaurin has not posted fewer than 77 receptions and 1,000 receiving yards each season since his rookie year. Advertisement It is clear that McLaurin wants some stability, especially after the emergence of Jayden Daniels during the 2024 season. The Commanders have roughly $21 million in cap space in 2025. Washington has the ability to extend McLaurin, especially because of an extension in all likelihood would lower his 2025 cap hit. It will be interesting to track this story throughout the summer. Terry McLaurin's contract 'frustrations' with Commanders coming to a head Bill Streicher-Imagn Images The Commanders are getting themselves into an ugly situation with Terry McLaurin. NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported last week that tensions are brewing between McLaurin and the Commanders amid this contract dispute. Advertisement 'Sources: #Commanders All-Pro WR Terry McLaurin has made it clear to the team that he's frustrated with the lack of progress on a long-term deal. As I previously reported, McLaurin unexpectedly left voluntary workouts after initially attending, and it remains to be seen whether he'll report for mandatory minicamp. McLaurin is entering the final year of his contract. Talks have been minimal,' Schultz wrote on social media on Thursday. It is surprising to hear that there have not been substantial contract discussions taking place. Washington has a clear motivation to keep McLaurin around and keep Jayden Daniels' top offensive weapon. Commanders fans are hopeful that McLaurin will receive a long-term extension as soon as possible. Hopefully this situation does not drag on throughout training camp. Otherwise it could turn into a bigger distraction. Related: 2 Commanders veterans whose roles will be pushed by rookies in 2025

The annual PFT Live hiatus starts now
We do it every year, right around now. The two-hour weekday show devoted to all things NFL embarks on a hiatus. This year's break begins today. PFT Live returns on Monday, July 28. Obviously, nothing changes here. We'll have many daily updates, every single day. I'll also be doing #PFTPM episodes on most of the weekdays during the upcoming break. Only days after we return, we'll be in Canton for the Hall of Fame game. And then comes the preseason. And the regular season. And on and on it goes, through Super Bowl LX on NBC and Peacock. Since the last hiatus ended, we've had a cast of co-hosts including Chris Simms, Devin McCourty, Rodney Harrison, Michael Holley, Charean Williams, and Myles Simmons. With a dash of Peter King. Thanks to all of them for helping to deliver a show that provides an authentic look at pro football, from various perspectives. And thanks to those of you who regularly consume the show, on Peacock or SiriusXM 85 or NBC Sports Now or Sky Sports or YouTube or clips on the website or via podcast.I'll be wide awake tomorrow morning, itching to do the show.
