The Facts:
Clinton Portis' improved attitude has earned him the starting job going into camp, according to OC Kyle Shanahan. That status, however, does not guarantee him the starting job when the season starts. Many observers thought that Johnson looked better during the practices that were open to the media.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to CSNWashington's Rich Tandler, Johnson looked quick, focused and he hustled on every play. Tandler added that Johnson has powerful motivation to perform in the form of some $9 million in incentives in his contract. ... Tandler went on to suggest that Portis could be the top running back and not necessarily start games. Kyle Shanahan stated recently that Portis is the third-down back. That could mean more action for Johnson on first and second downs with Portis then coming in for long-yardage situations. ... Much will depend, of course, on training camp and pre-season play. Given that, we'll continue to watch closely and bring you more as developments warrant.
