This is strange. I don't know why the post would have that article based solely on speculation.

In the interview, Portis said that the surgery went well and he has not spoken to one person in the organization yet.

I can't imagine he would lie on the show and I would be even more surprised if they made the decision without consulting him. I don't think that would sit well with him.

on comcast sports net they said that he would probably go on ir shortly after consalting with team officials. he was also talking and said he would try to talk the team officials out of doing it, but it is probably going to happen

ESPN just reported that he's on the IR...its official...i think its dumb. campbell and clinton need to play with eachother...

how bad is the hand? finger?

that fucking sucks. He's not gonna be happy at all. Oh well at least he'll be healthy by next season.

Pocket$ $traight · 11-14-2006, 08:23 PM

I don't get it. I remember Emmitt breaking his hand and playing shortly after. T.O. broke his hand this year and played soon after. What would cause the Redskins to end Portis' season?

Portis said is was a clean break and that surgery was successful. The season is essentially over but it isn't officially over.

I'd wait we are definitely eliminated from teh playoffs before putting him on IR.

dmek25 · 11-14-2006, 08:33 PM

so is he, or isnt he, on injured reserve? i say wait until the skins are eliminated. then make a move. but as long as we still have a chance, work on getting him healthy

I think he is dmek, check out ESPN.

i saw on espn that he will probably be put on IR, and im not suprised. i agree with the decision

That Guy · 11-14-2006, 09:25 PM

its not just the finger (like TO) its the HAND - three screws, no sooner than 4 weeks, maybe up to 8. besides that, he's probably going to have shoulder surgery this week as well, o he can start healing that too (which may be longer than 4 weeks in recovery and part of the reason).

I agree with it if he is really being put on IR now. whether he is or not, he probably wouldn't have played for the rest of this year anyways.

dall-assblows · 11-14-2006, 10:53 PM

i think his shoulder is still f-ed up

I'm sick about this. But the playoffs are nothing short of a miracle. I agree with this move. Get our franchise back healthy for next year. I knew that tackle in the Bengals game would haunt us, but not like this.

MTK · 11-15-2006, 08:43 AM

He's had such an injury plagued year, shut him down and let's get him 100% for next season.

This year is a lost cause.

Winning our last 7 games would be a miracle, and besides even if that did happen you would have to believe that Betts and Duckett are doing a good enough job.
