Rex Ryan tempers expectations for Percy Harvin's first game as a Jet

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan attempted to temper expectations for new wide receiver Percy Harvin in his first game since being acquired via a trade from the Seattle Seahawks.

Harvin is making his debut Sunday with his new team against the Buffalo Bills.

“I’m just saying that it’s hard to expect a guy to come in and learn an entire offense,” Ryan said. “We’re going to use him. It’s not to expect him to play 50 plays or something like that. That’s probably unrealistic. I think when you look at how we are going to use Percy, it might be different than how he was used in Minnesota [and] how he was used in Seattle. I guess time will tell, but I truly believe with his kind of talent it’s going to be a big help, obviously for our offense and with that, our whole team."
