Sounds minor

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Is "turning an ankle" code for I'm too tired to handle Zorn's practices?

Smoot sure bounced back from his "turned ankle" pretty darn quickly! We'll see if Portis does the same.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

If I get to be out of commission for two weeks I'd turn an ankle too. The pain, the horror....oh, ah, ouch.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Does anyone remember getting Eric Shelton back in January?

I remember talking about him; Louisville guy, 2nd round pick to Panthers.

I can't remember if we picked him up, but it sounds like you're saying we did?

He was a beast at L'ville, but broke his leg as I recall.

Yes, but was a bust with the Panthers. So, it didn't make news. I wonder if they've thought about converting him to FB given his size and Sellers' age.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

or actually, was it Michael Bush that broke his leg at L'ville? I think so. Seems Shelton had some injury that changed him though.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Not really how i wanted to start my day....*sigh*

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Must be nice to start your day at 1:06pm.

I don't think the injury is career thearting.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

shelton? really? Iwas a fan.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Portis just wants to sit in "THE Z SHADES" and take it easy, this will be no problem at all.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

There are always a ton of "fake" injuries during training camp. I'm not concerned. Even if it is legit, which I doubt, he'll be just fine. No need to panic.

Haha...no my day started much earlier. Maybe it was badly phrased.

Thats not the first thing I want to read when I get on the Warpath.

That works lol

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

until i hear otherwise i'll just assume he didn't feel like practicing.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

It's nothing. Just another way to get time off.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Trust me, he just wants to sit in the Z SHADES and chill, he has been here all offseason working out, and now all of a sudden he's hurt, please... he will be back in practice by the end of the week

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

Does this get him out of the HOF Game?

J-Dawg

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

He was back at practice this afternoon, from what I understand

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

That is correct, the morning showers probally made him feel a lot better. As long as we don't see these kind of moves during the season, no big deal

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

I'd have no problem with holding him out of most if not all of the preseason.

Re: RI: Portis turns an ankle
 

he is definitely out for the hall of fame game. and i think they would probably use the star treatment in pre season. with little or no playing time

Yes I agree wholeheartedly. Our passing offense is all new. It stands to reason that part of the offense is more likely to struggle than the rushing component.

And Portis IS the rushing component. Wrap him in bubble wrap and put him on the shelf.
