It's a little concerning to hear that Portis (and maybe the team) thought it was a big enough issue that they needed to see Dr. Andrews in Alabama. That guy is THE authority on sports medicine and orthopedic injuries.

Seems like if it was a little knee ache, Portis would have just seen the team docs and that'd been it. But he went to the big guy.

Hopefully they're just being extra careful with it and there's really nothing to worry about. The good thing is that if it was a Dr Andrews diagnosis, it's almost certainly the right diagnosis.

I'm sure he'll heal up and be fine by camp.
