Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
Well F&*^ ME ! Tendonitis ?!?! That's some painful stuff. And his knees of all things. Hopefully things will work out. I can see why they brought Blaylock in though. DAMN !!!

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
as long as coach Gibbs lets him rest during the week, everything will be fine

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
Not a big deal... right now.
If this was August I'd be worried, but he has plenty of time to get this worked out. It will be something to keep an eye on the next few months. |

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
While not serious, it looks like this could be one of the signs that put Portis in the class of running backs whose time in the league may be short. Few are able to stay in the league for years, like Bettis or Emmitt Smith; most are 3 to 6 year backs or less -- Stephen Davis comes to mind.
Time will tell, and I hope Portis can keep it up for at least three more seasons, but that doesn't appear likely. |

And tendonitis isn't a huge deal if it's dealt with properly. If it lingers all season, then it might be a sign of a bigger problem, but I doubt that will happen. |

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
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.

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
In some athletes, Tendonitis has proven to be a pest for extended periods of time. I'm hoping this is not the case with Portis, however his situation demonstrates why depth at his position is so important, and trading Betts would not have been a good idea. Having Blaylock aboard for additional depth can somewhat relieve our anxiety because he is someone familiar with the system, and has been productive.

Re: Clinton Portis has tendonitis in his knee
I think all of our Rbs are ready to start. Portis-Betts-Rock-Blaylock. I think any of these guys can get the job done.
