Redskins RB Portis visited specialists who examined Eagles RB Westbrook

In order to make sure there are not lingering affects before returning to the field in his Redskins jersey, the Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis went to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center on Friday to visit concussion specialists.

Familiar place and familiar reason? Yeah that is where the Philadelphia Eagles running back Brian Westbrook was last week. The that were the same doctors who examined Westbrook, who has sustained two concussions in the last month.

Portis will have similar examinations as he sustained a concussion while playing against the Atlanta Falcons two weeks ago. Missing last week’s game against the Denver Broncos, he has also been ruled out for this week’s game against the Dallas Cowboys.

“We’re going to make sure we take care of all the details. We’re for Clinton getting well,” Redskins coach Jim Zorn said. “Each day Clinton’s done a great job of communicating how he’s felt, and that’s what it’s going to take.”
