Because it sets a double standard. If Portis comes in and works his ass off in the weight room maybe he's a little stronger and doesn't hurt his shoulder. You don't see LT getting all these nagging injuries do you? That's becasue he puts time on the weight room. Listen, I know you don't treat everyone the same. Especially at the NFL level. But when your 5-11 you need your best players so stand up and set an example for guys like LLoyd.
