May 29, 2014 12:34 AM

Percy Harvin did not practice with the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday and appears unlikely to play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

“He’s with the rehab guys,” Pete Carroll said of Harvin. “We’ll see how that goes, then see what [Thursday] brings. With the workload he’s endured to get back in shape, there’s going to be some stuff and he’s been a little bit sore.” 

Harvin had hip surgery on Aug. 1 to repair a torn labrum.

Aldon Smith Out Of Rehab, Returns To 49ers' Facility

Aug 5, 2014 4:54 AM

Aldon Smith has left rehab and turned himself in in connection with a felony weapons charge.

Smith immediately posted $75,000 in bail after he was processed. Smith is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 12 in connection with the charge. He has an additional court date on Nov. 19 to face misdemeanor DUI and drug charges.

Smith has been on an "indefinite absence" from the San Francisco 49ers.

Jim Harbaugh met with Smith at the 49ers' facility on Wednesday.

"The best approach is the day-to-day approach," said Harbaugh. "And just focusing on having a good day today. Getting the most out of today and avoid the 'if this, if that, in a week, in two weeks, in a month' timetable type of talk."

The 49ers wouldn't give a return date for Smith.

Martin began the season as the Dolphins' replacement for Jake Long at left tackle and was moved to right tackle after the team acquired Bryant McKinnie.
