"If you're a playmaker, you're going to touch the football in our offense," Meyer said. "We'll shovel the ball, hand it off and pitch it to receivers. All we've done with him so far are what we call jet sweeps. He's had some success with that."
Harvin also seems to have matured, thanks to the guidance of older teammates. When Harvin scored against the Golden Knights last week, he threw the football to the ground instead of handing it to an official. His actions didn't draw a penalty, but drew the ire of senior receiver
Dallas Baker.
Baker immediately grabbed Harvin on the sideline and lectured him about sportsmanship. Meyer said Harvin listened intently to Baker and learned from the experience.
"We don't do that here," Meyer said. "We throw the ball to the official and we have a rule that you go find a lineman and give him a hug. I didn't have to tell him that. I heard Dallas Baker explaining it to him. That's a good indication that some of these older players are taking the baton and working with the young guys."
