Portis to play Saturday - he doesn't seem too happy about it

Hes not LT..but still can you blame him? every hit he taes is one less run in his career. Hes been injured and hes a baller, i can understand his frustration. With the type of numbers he posts i think hes more than proven himself to rest up

I hear you, but........
It's a dangerous game.
I might point out, he is WELL compensated for that reason, and to do whatever the coach and the team might require of him (whenever they require it) that does not violate the players contract, etc. While Portis has no doubt been an asset to this team, and continues to be, he needs to put his head down, and go to work. (IMO)
For the good of the team, and perhaps not his personal interests
