Stud RB Clinton Portis was hurt in the first quarte of a meaningless game. He later commented that He shouldn't have been in there, and that the preseason is too long.

My question is this. Do the Redskins have a reasonable expectation that Portis's preseason would exceed a dozen plays? He got injured on the eighth offensive snap, and while I don't want him hurt ever (because of my man-crush), his complaint seems invalid, unless he's advocating a seven snap pre-season.
