Portis said the injury is "bothering me and it's stiff." On his weekly radio appearance on 106.7 The Fan, he said he is awaiting the results of an MRI exam taken yesterday. In his Monday meeting with the media, HC Mike Shanahan said little about Portis's injury, but in an interview later that day with Comcast SportsNet, he expressed his worries. "Any time he goes out like he did and puts street clothes on during a game, I'm concerned," Shanahan said. "I know him. I've been around him too long. He's going to play hurt. Hopefully, the MRI is not as bad as I think it might be. Just have to keep our fingers crossed. ..." Ryan Torain will start if Portis doesn't go. ... We'll have more as developments warrant.
