Now that the New York Jets have traded for WR Brandon Marshall of the Chicago Bears, Percy Harvin's time in New York is numbered as he's expected to be released. However, despite his prowess for getting injured, he won't be out of a job long. Here's a look at five stellar potential landing spots for the uber-talented WR.

Peyton Manning recently worked out his deal in order to save the Denver Broncos some money in hopes to improve the team, so there is money floating around. With the loss of TE Julius Thomas imminent, the Broncos could look to sign Harvin as an added dimension to an already impressive air game.

Speaking of the Chicago Bears, they need a receiver to help replace the production they lose from Brandon Marshall's departure. QB Jay Cutler tends to take a lot of sacks and hold on to the ball far too long, so why not bring in Harvin -- someone who can make plays on screens and give Cutler a break?

The Indianapolis Colts saw just how valuable a player with Percy Harvin's athleticism can be out of the backfield with Ahmad Bradshaw's stellar first-half performance. If you ask me, the Colts were not the same team offensively after they lost Bradshaw to injury. While Harvin is a WR, he could be used as a quasi scat-back if necessary as well.

Rumors suggest that Jeremy Maclin will not be returning to the Philadelphia Eagles, so they'll need to make up a solid amount of production in the passing game. If Chip Kelly's system is what we all claim it is, there is no better match for Harvin than Philadelphia.

If the Green Bay Packers do indeed lose Randall Cobb in free agency, Percy Harvin could be the perfect replacement considering the two have a very similar skill-set. Aaron Rodgers is otherworldly and could easily return Harvin back to some of his past form if he was able to stay on the field.
