re: Shanahan: Portis will be allowed to test the market (updated: Portis officially released)

The Early Lead - Clinton Portis: 'I should be released today'

He made some good comments. It sounded to me like the skins gave him the chance to re-work his deal for less money, and he decided to go for the money.

He at least was honest with 106.7 the fan when he told them his passion for the game has not been the same since Joe Gibbs retired again. That speaks volumes when you think back to how his play seemed to drop off a cliff...it makes perfect sense that he wasnt playing with his heart in it, especially when all the major injuries started hampering him. He just couldnt play through the pain anymore. Injuries overtook him.

Good Luck Portis. All hard feelings i had for you in the past are gone now. Thank you for being honest with the fans about what really happened.

He has one year left in the NFL, IMO...I hope he goes out a winner.
