CINCINNATI -- Running back Clinton Portis partially dislocated his left shoulder during the Washington Redskins' opening series of the preseason Sunday night, a significant setback for the Redskins' revamped offense.
An MRI test detected the injury, which involves the bone popping out of place temporarily in the shoulder socket. Standard treatment involves rest and strengthening exercises.
There was no immediate indication how long he will be sidelined.
Portis opened the game by carrying for 8 yards, then blocked on pass plays. He didn't return for the next series, and headed for the locker room a little while later without his jersey to get the shoulder tested.
