When Clinton Portis’ groin injury was officially announced, the Redskins said they hoped he’d be back in 4-6 weeks. The Washington Post, however, wondered if Portis would ever suit up for the team again.
Some comments by Portis during his weekly spot on the Mike Wise Show certainly support the Post’s case.
“I have no doubt I’ll recover from this injury,” Portis said according to Ryan O’Halloran of the Comcast Sportsnet Washington. “Hopefully it’s in a Redskins uniform.”
UPDATE: The quote above left out some key words that change the meaning of Portis’ statement. According to Jason Reid of the Washington Post, Portis said, “”I’m gonna be running the ball again this year,” Portis said. “Now, I
can’t control what kind of uniform it’s in. But I would hope it’s in the
Redskins’ uniform.”
Well, then. Carry on.
