hooknladder Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Portis lands on injured reserve Posted by Mike Florio on December 8, 2009 2:59 PM ET Exactly one month to the day after his helmet was sandwiched between the helmets of two Falcons players, the Redskins have decided to place veteran tailback Clinton Portis on injured reserve, due to the lingering effects of a concussion. "We felt at this juncture in the season, it was best to place Clinton on injured reserve," Redskins executive Vinny Cerrato said in a team-issued release. "After consulting with our medical staff and other specialists, Clinton's prognosis is good and we expect him to make a full recovery and return to the Redskins." Though there's a growing sentiment in some circles that the Redskins should part ways with Portis, $6.43 million of his $7.195 million base salary is guaranteed for 2010. As we observed nearly two months ago to the day, "f owner Dan Snyder decides to move on, Portis will have one hell of a parting gift."

Big Ernie McCracken Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I'm curious where keggerz has him ranked as far as a keeper. My guess is top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 I thought his career would effectively end next year. I was a year off (and would have loved him as RB2 this year - whew) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
