Portis' Tendinitis Returns
Hopefully this is no big deal. As good as Betts is, I would hate to see Portis deal with medical problems throughout the season.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
Damn, this really sucks. I really wanted to see the guy at 100% agian. I really hope this is a case of tendonitis that just goes away.
Wishing the best to Portis |

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
I hate to say this but Portis may experience injury problems throughout the rest of this season. I am so glad that we have Betts. Betts was so solid last I'd be glad to have him back there again this year. The only thing he needs to work on is his big play cuts.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
unfortually i think this will be a problem this season. At least we have Betts for all the Betts bashers. Betts will do good job when he plays.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
I have been saying all off season that the tendonitis was going to be a nagging issue for Portis... and I got attacked.... |

he's a straight ahead runner. what he needs to work on is holding on to the ball, too many fumbles last year.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
It's not uncommon for someone to have a flare up. Camp has started, and his physical activity has greatly increased. It can be easily treated with rest and anti-inflammatory meds. He just needs to get eased back into the flow.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
If it were the regular season he would rest during the week and be a go on gameday. I'm more concerned about Samuels than I am about Portis, by quite a bit.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
Portis hates to practice...I'm sure his tendonitis will be feeling just fine, say in about 5 weeks.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
I'm worried about Portis to be honest. Not this particular injury, while tendonitis never completely goes away, you can deal with it. Im worried that injuries could riddle him. Lets hope Betts worked on his blocking and fumbling problems in the offseason. I had flashbacks of Stephen Davis fumbling in important situations.

Re: Portis' Tendonitis Returns
The thing is, he may never be 100% again in his career. While Clinton Portis a bit banged up is still better than half the back in this league, that may very well be his upside from here on out.
