Portis, Taylor Rib And Support Each Other

Clinton Portis is making Jason Taylor feel more comfortable with the Redskins. Each has ties to Miami. Portis was a star running back at the “U”. Taylor spent 11 years with the Miami Dolphins. Portis says he’s buddying up with the six-time Pro Bowler to help indoctrinate him to Northern Virginia. Portis ribs Taylor that nobody goes to the Dolphins’ games. Taylor says he knows Portis is a great athlete, but also is appreciative that he’s a nice guy, helping to direct him to key places such as the grocery store and the dry cleaners. The two will try to help Washington win its fourth straight preseason game against the Carolina Panthers Saturday night in Charlotte.
