The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... If the Harvin declines to restructure his contract and is cut by the Jets, the Patriots are expected to show interest if the speedy wideout hits the market, per CBSSports.com's Jason La Canfora.

Diehards Line: Harvin was traded to the Jets in October for a conditional pick. That pick will escalate to a fourth-rounder, if he is still on the New York roster by March 19, and will drop to a sixth-rounder if the Jets part ways with by that date. The 26-year-old Harvin hauled in 29 passes for 350 yards after joining New York. He is owed $10.5 million next season. In addition to the Patriots, Profootballtalk.com reports the Chargers and Packers might also be interested if Harvin is available.
