The Facts:
Joe Gibbs ruled Portis out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, an announcement that surprised Portis and created yet another bizarre twist in the running back's injury saga. "He didn't practice today. ... If a guy doesn't practice, he's not going to play," Gibbs said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
When told what Gibbs had said, Portis was taken back. "I didn't know the decision had been made," Portis said. "I thought it was a game-time decision. ..." We'll see about that. Portis says he'll make the trip -- and Gibbs did do an about face (in the opposite direction) last week. ... Gibbs said Ladell Betts, T.J. Duckett and Rock Cartwright will be the running backs against the Cowboys. Portis was downgraded from questionable to doubtful on the injury report. Staytuned. We'll have more if/when developments warrant.
