Portis to see concussion specialist

according to zorn's press conference portis is out against the eagles next weekend, and possibly further, i wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't come back at all

I'll not shed a bloody tear if he doesn't.

My thoughts exactly, who can still support Portis after the last couple of years? I can't think of many times i wished for someone to get hurt, but i wasn't mad for Portis to miss some games.

Come on guys, don't forget this guy gave us around 1500 yards last season, lets not toss him out as dead weight so easily

i'm very surprised how fast everyone wants to toss him to the side, i would love to see him get healthy and come back in a secondary role in our backfield net year

he has been steadily tied with los for the player most people would like to see gone on the warpath poll, that blows my mind

^ he actually leads by two votes right now, i just don't get it

I want to see us move on from Portis but not because I want him gone. Far from it. I think he's given a lot to this team, but for the greater good we should move him now because he's on the downward slope of his career in my opinion. Better to get rid of him a year too early than a year too late

Oh brother. He's one of a handful of backs who still get almost all of their team's carries. There are dozens of much cheaper backs who could have racked up 1500 yards if they got the 342 carries Portis got. Most teams are smart enough to split the carries among 2 or 3 backs. We've seen Betts and Cartwright be productive, but our stupid coaching staff froze them both out, so Portis could hog all the carries. What a waste.

Looking at Portis' comments lately, he kinda takes some jabs at the team. On his radio show he said something like "that's the redskins, make everything harder."

I wonder how much Portis is really trying to come back. I don't know anything about recovering from a concussion, but I think you have to wonder if he's really committed to coming back.

I also think Zorn has used this situation to gain control; he's basically said once you practice you can play. It's an ultimatum of sorts. I could see CP deciding to stay out just to spite Zorn for making him come to practice.

He's brought it on himself. I would love to see him in b&g til the end of his career, but only if he can be a team player & stop running his mouth, skipping practice, telling coaches to bench Sellers, etc.
