RENTON, Wash. Eric Dickerson Jersey . - Percy Harvins debut with the Seattle Seahawks will have to wait at least another week. The receiver wont play against the St. Louis Rams on Monday night, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Saturday. Harvin practiced this week for the first time since having hip surgery to repair a torn labrum in early August. "We worked him hard, then we rested him," Carroll said. "Well continue to do that until his conditioning is caught up and hes ready to go." Harvin was traded from Minnesota to Seattle in the off-season. Hes been on the physically unable to perform list since the start of training camp. Linebacker Bobby Wagner is expected to play against the Rams after missing the last two games because of a high-ankle sprain. He returned to full practice on Thursday and Friday for the Seahawks, who are leading the NFC with a 6-1 record. "Hes maybe two or three weeks ahead of what you would think would happen," Carroll said. "I dont know how he did it. The trainers dont know either, but they did a great job in getting him back." Wagner said hes moving well and the ankle began to feel better last week. However, he didnt have a chance to test it before the game against Arizona. "I felt it was going to take some time," Wagner said, "but I knew I wasnt going to be gone that long." Carroll wouldnt commit to Wagner starting until he sees how he looks before the game. Harvin hasnt appeared in a game in nearly a full calendar year. Carroll said when Harvin is ready to play, he wont hesitate to put him on the field. "Hes a hard-charger," Carroll said. "Hes not going to sit back. When he goes, he goes. So weve got to make sure to manage that really well. "Were totally pleased with how hes worked to get back. As soon as we can do it, we will, but when its right." Cory Littleton Jersey . -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have released veteran guard Davin Joseph, a mainstay on their offensive line over the past eight seasons. Los Angeles Rams Jerseys . Rajon Rondo had 18 of Bostons season-high 38 assists and the Celtics committed just seven turnovers in a 118-111 win over the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night.NEW YORK -- Less than 12 hours after winning the Super Bowl, Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll already was talking about getting started on next season. "The first meeting that well have will be tomorrow. ... Our guys would be surprised if we didnt," Carroll said Monday morning. "We really have an eye on whats coming, and we dont dwell on what just happened. Well take this in stride." He appeared at a news conference at a Manhattan hotel with linebacker Malcolm Smith, the MVP of Seattles 43-8 victory over Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos on Sunday night. Carroll oversees a team with the fourth-youngest roster for a Super Bowl champion, with an average age of 26 years, 175 days, according to STATS. The youngest champs ever were the Pittsburgh Steelers who won the 1975 Super Bowl, and they collected a second consecutive title the next year. Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson just wrapped up his second season in the league, as did Jermaine Kearse, the receiver who caught one of the QBs two touchdown passes Sunday night. Doug Baldwin, who caught the other, is only three years into his pro career, as are star cornerback Richard Sherman and Smith, who at 24 is the fourth-youngest player to be the Super Bowl MVP. "Weve seen the effort that it takes to get to this point, and, obviously, well try to replicate that and do it again," Smith said. "Were looking forward to the next challenges and guys having a target on their back and people trying to come after us." Smith became the third linebacker to earn Super Bowl MVP honours, thanks to a 69-yard touchdown return off an interception of regular-season MVP Manning in the first half and a fumble recovery in the second half. He said that during the game, some of his teammates were telling him, "You might be the MVP." "And I was like, No way. No way. Not me." Carroll said general manager Joohn Schneider has positioned the Seahawks to be able to avoid the problems that can make it hard to repeat as NFL champions. Cooper Kupp Jersey. Since Denver repeated in the 1999 game, only one team has won two Super Bowls in a row, the New England Patriots in 2004-05. Theres the need to replace players who leave via free agency. The need to pay other players with new, better-paying contracts. "John Schneider has done an extraordinary job of structuring this roster contractually, and with the vision of looking ahead, so that we can keep our guys together," Carroll said. "One of the things that happens every so often is teams have a big fallout after they win the Super Bowl. Were not in that situation." Carroll was reminded during Sundays game of some of his blowout victories in college football bowl games when he was a championship-winning coach at Southern California. "It felt like it. It looked like it. The score was like it," he said Monday. "I really cant tell you exactly what it is, but somethings going on, because I sat back there at the end of the first quarter and said, Shoot, here it goes," he said. "Bang, bang, bang, bang, and its 22-0 at halftime." Carroll described the lopsided nature of the game as "kind of like an avalanche," an interesting choice of words given the hubbub last week -- and, really, for months before that -- over whether the first outdoor Super Bowl at a cold-weather site would be affected by snow. Instead, the weather wasnt a factor Sunday at the stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., where the temperature was 49 degrees at kickoff and only some light rain fell. On Monday morning, meanwhile, driving snow hit the area and forecasts called for up to 8 inches. "I dont know how (NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell) pulled it off, but he pulled off the weather in perfect fashion," Carroll joked. "The NFL is powerful." ' ' '
