Portis is nearly cleared to return

Redskins running back Clinton Portis said Tuesday that he has been cleared by a Washington doctor to return but needs to clear one more hurdle before suiting up again.

In his weekly radio appearance on ESPN 980, Portis said he can't return to action until he receives clearance from specialists at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, who first evaluated Portis on Nov. 20. He's scheduled to visit with them again next Monday, and Coach Jim Zorn has already ruled Portis out for Sunday's game against New Orleans.
