Portis sent to IR

CP is done for the year with his continued effects of the concussion he suffered weeks ago. CP said yesterday that he is even thinking about his future and possible retirement.

The guy is only 28 but has had a lot of work over the last few years. Still, he is still a solid back and has a couple of years left in him assuming he is healthy.

The bigger issue is does the team want him. He is overpriced and he thinks he is a superstar. I believe the Redskins are tired of his thinking he is above the team and seeing how they have been more successful running the ball without him may be the reason for not wanting to bring him back.

I'm sure many players do not like that he doesn't practice and don't like that he has direct channels to Snyderatto. I also think that CP's ego is hurt that the players/team do not miss him that much since he has been out. I'm sure those are some reasons for him saying what he said.

Still, I would welcome a healthy and dedicated CP back as I think he is still a quality back in this league.

No big deal - he seems to have lost a step and is no longer popular with his teammates.
