Gibbs acquired Portis in a huge trade last year. Portis is attending the spring practices and, according to this report from David Elfin of the Washington Times, Gibbs wants him to become a team leader. Portis is auditionig [sic]for the role by supporting the boycott of his buddies, Taylor and Moss. He cites two reasons: (1) it's a long season (but not that long for the Redskins; our season ended three and half months ago) and (2) the spring sessions are worthless. In fact, Portis says he has told his mates "You're not missing nothing."
I wonder how long before Dan Snyder decides to change coaches (again)?
