Player Notes

May 8, 2008
Running back Clinton Portis sat out of the Washington Redskins final mini-camp practice due to a strained hip flexor, according to the Washington Times.

April 21, 2008
Over the past few months, Clinton Portis did pretty well for himself. He received a $9.32 million signing bonus when he restructured in March, and the Redskins guaranteed his 2008 and 2009 salaries, the Washington Post reports. The club also locked in a sizable chunk of his 2010 pay.

April 3, 2008
The Washington Redskins might begin next season as a run-first team, but head coach Jim Zorn wants to make the offense balanced between running and passing as soon as he can, according to the Washington Post. Zorn has blended in his West Coast passing offense with the running offense of the previous regime. Zorns offense emphasizes the passing game, but with quarterback Jason Campbell learning a new scheme, the Redskins will likely feature running back Clinton Portis next season. Portis was a top-5 back in most scoring formats last year, and it appears his star is shining brightly for another solid campaign in 2008.

March 31, 2008
Running back Clinton Portis is excited about the teams new offense, according to Pro Football Weekly. Portis feels like the spread formations that Jim Zorn plans to use will open up more running lanes inside, similar to what he saw in Denvers zone-blocking offense. The Redskins coaching staff has plans to make Portis the featured player in the new west-coast offensive scheme in 2008.

March 28, 2008
After studying Clinton Portis on tape during the offseason, Washington Redskins coach Jim Zorn is preparing the seven-year vet for a bigger role in the offense, according to SI.com. Portis, who finished sixth in the league in rushing with 1,262 yards, is spending his offseason training at the team's complex. "We think that he can be a 1,800-yard back this season," assistant head coach/running backs Stump Mitchell said. Despite the implementation of the West Coast offense, the team will keep their blocking schemes intact and believe that continuity will allow Portis to thrive as their feature back. Furthermore, the Redskins are contemplating expanding Portis' role as a receiver after the vet hauled in a career-high 47 passes last season. "We know that he was productive as a receiver last season, but most of his receptions were of the 'check-down' variety," Mitchell said. "We will see how he runs routes during mini-camps and Organized Team Activities and determine if we can make him a bigger part of the passing game. He is a complete player with an unbelievable set of skills and we must find a way to maximize his talent."
