will portis play?

He will play,but he most likely isn't a good start in any fantasy league.He will split carries with Gary most likely (it's a hard call,Shanahan isn't setting a definate starter,or telling who will get the bulk of the carries).

The best thing to do with Portis is wait for him to have one breakout game then trade him for a proven performer. At this point he is more useful as trade bait than as a RB. You probably got him late in the draft, or from the free agent pool, so any starter (for your team) that you get for him is a good deal. Heck, one good carry in a game with a promise that "Portis will see more carries next week" would be sufficient to spark a trade.
