The most important injury story of week 11 in the fantasy football season centers around one of the top candidates for Fantasy MVP thus far into the season: Clinton Portis of the Washington Redskins.
Portis has been hampered by a knee injury that has been classified as a second-degree MCL sprain. He has reportedly had trouble straightening his leg according to NFL.com, and head coach Jim Zorn says that Clinton Portis is iffy for this weekend’s game and that Ladell Betts has a better chance of getting the start.
This sounds like one of those that you will want to keep your eye on throughout the week. If Ladell Betts is available and you own Portis, you should definitely snatch him if you haven’t already. Either way, if you are a Clinton Portis owner, you want to have a backup plan in mind for your superstar in case he cannot go.
For updates on Clinton Portis, as well as news and notes regarding other injured running backs like Willie Parker and Cadillac Williams, head over to the Fantasy Sports Blog.
