Clinton Portis' Knees

[GTripp0012]

Tendonitis is never serious, but it can be quite chronic. It's a foregone conclusion that CP will be in the starting lineup Week 1, but the problem is that over the next 17 weeks, theres little certainty that he will be able to keep playing.

If he hurts his shoulder, and is bothered by knee tendonitis, hes a lot more likely to sit the game out than if just his shoulder was giving him trouble.
