First off, he was cleared to play week 1. Should they have just held him out? You can't be scared to play someone. If the doctors clear him, and Portis himself says he's ready, you play him.

He got tweaked against the Vikings but it wasn't related to his preseason injury.

He has plenty of time to reach 1000. Hitting 1000 isn't even that big of a deal anymore. He has 13 games left, he would only need to average 77 yards per game to do it.
