Redskins RB Portis had verbal confrontation with FB Sellers

The Washington Redskins had rough days for this week. Negative news always surrounded. When they hired Sherman Lewis as a consultant to help out the offense, reports said that Lewis was hired to replace current coach Sherman Lewis; defensive coordinator Greg Blache’s being uncooperative with media certainly offended some reporters and arose even more negative speculation; and on Friday, reports came out to say that there had been verbal war between starting running back Clinton Portis and fullback Mike Sellers.

Seemingly the reports were resulted from Portis’ remarks on a weekly radio appearance last week. He cited a missed assignment by Sellers as contributing to the Redskins’ failure to score on an early fourth-and-goal play in a loss to the Detroit Lions. When it came to reports, the story changed to be like this: Portis was frustrated over Sellers’ blocking and the two began to have heated verbal war.

On Friday, Coach Zorn confirmed that Portis and Sellers did have a verbal confrontation earlier this week, but it was not an issue at all as that was just how a team goes. So it is not necessary to worry about it and there will not be any distraction to the team.
