Just ran into Clinton Portis. When I teased CP about he and his fellow running backs Ladell Betts and Rock Cartwright being here for all the offseason workouts while the receivers were AWOL, he said the wideouts had returned except for starters Santana Moss and Antwaan Randle El.

And lo and behold a few minutes later, who should appear but Devin Thomas, who unlike fellow second-round receiver Malcolm Kelly (knee surgery in January) is fully cleared to participate in the offseason program. Kelly has been on hand of late, too, but isn't in Ashburn today.

Thomas said he wasn't at the Park for the first few days last week because he was working at Michigan State and helping his former teammates get ready for their Pro Day when they show off their skills for NFL scouts. Thomas also predicted that he'll be away in early April because his Spartans will be playing in the Final Four in Detroit.
