Porter entered the starting lineup in Sunday's win over the Raiders, collecting two tackles and knocking down one pass while seeing 58 snaps.

After missing the first two weeks of the season with a hamstring injury and seeing limited action in the Week 3 blowout loss to the Seahawks, Porter surprisingly displaced Alan Ball from the starting lineup. He generally fared well in holding upstart rookie Amari Cooper in check, as the No. 4 overall pick reeled in only four of nine targets for 49 yards and a touchdown, with nickel back Sherrick McManis bearing more responsibility on the score than Porter. With Porter now well removed from the hamstring pull that limited him through much of training camp, it's likely that he'll remain in the starting lineup and function as the Bears' No. 1 corner ahead of Ball and the struggling Kyle Fuller. Look for Porter to match up with the Chiefs' Jeremy Maclin in Week 5.

Porter (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, the Chicago Tribune reports.

With Porter again unable to play, Sherrick McManis will serve as the nickelback, behind starting corners Kyle Fuller and Alan Ball. If McManis plays well, Porter may be bumped down to the fourth or fifth spot on the depth chart upon rejoining the team.

Porter missed the entire week of practice after injuring his hamstring during the final preseason contest. His absence will likely leave Sherrick McManis to work as the nickleback, with Kyle Fuller and Alan Ball the starters.

Porter (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

Despite being banged up throughout training camp, Porter ended up claiming a backup job at cornerback. Porter's availability for the Week 1 matchup against the Packers is in some peril though, which could result in Sherrick McManis handling the nickel back duties for the Bears.

Porter sustained a hamstring injury in Saturday's preseason loss to the Bengals, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Porter's path to making the Bears' 53-man roster got a little bit easier after the team released Tim Jennings following the game, but Alan Ball appears in better position than Porter to claim the starting cornerback role opposite Kyle Fuller. If the injury -- which kept Porter out of practice Monday -- proves to be significant, his chances of cracking the roster could take a serious hit.

Porter signed a one-year deal with the Bears on Monday.

Porter was released by the Redskins just over a week ago following a season that was plagued by multiple injuries. Those ailments limited him to just three games and five combined tackles, but when healthy, he's capable of 50-70 tackles and creating multiple turnovers. Porter will be a more-than-capable addition on a struggling pass defense that ranked 30th in the league in 2014 with 264.4 passing yards allowed per game.

The Redskins have released Porter, the Washington Post reports.

The release of Porter, who was limited to three games for Washington last season due to hamstring and shoulder injuries, saves the team $2.2 million against the salary cap. Porter became expendable due to the emergence of 2014 fourth-rounder Bashaud Breeland as well as the free agent addition of Chris Culliver.

Porter (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against Arizona, Zac Boyer of the Washington Times reports.

Injuries have limited Porter to just one game all season (a Week 4 loss to the Giants). The seven-year veteran is pretty far off the fantasy radar at this point.

Porter was cleared to make Redskins debut last Thursday, but he aggravated his hamstring injury and was held out of practice all of this week as a result. Chase Minnifield figures to work behind David Amerson on the right corner.

Porter (hamstring) is slated to suit up Thursday against the Giants, Mike Jones of the Washington Post reports.

The return of Porter bolsters the Washington secondary, but a wait-and-see approach is in order for IDP owners.

Porter (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against Houston.

Porter wasn't able to log a single practice all week, so his absence could stretch past Sunday. The Redskins have a vulnerable secondary to begin with, so Porter's eventual return will be a welcome one.

Porter (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, the Washington Post reports.

Porter suffered the injury Saturday and is questionable for Week 1.

Porter sustained a hamstring injury in Monday's exhibition game, and will not return.

Porter's status should be updated by the team later this week, but this doesn't bode well for his chances of winning a starting job in the Washington secondary.

Tracy Porter has been cleared for training camp.

Porter missed the entire offseason program recovering from shoulder surgery. Now that he's been cleared, he'll get the majority of snaps at slot corner, with David Amerson and DeAngelo Hall starting outside.

Redskins CB Tracy Porter (shoulder) is expected to be ready for training camp.

Porter missed the entire offseason program recovering from shoulder surgery. The Redskins expect him to be fine when they open camp later this month. Porter is the favorite for the slot role behind David Amerson and DeAngelo Hall. Rookie Bashaud Breeland will likely open the season as the No. 4 corner.

Redskins CB Tracy Porter underwent shoulder surgery this offseason.

Porter is still recovering from the surgery, but is expected to be fine for training camp. Signed to a two-year, $6 million deal in March, Porter is penciled in as the Redskins' nickel corner. He could face competition for snaps from fourth-round DB Bashaud Breeland, with DeAngelo Hall moving to the slot in sub-packages.

Redskins agreed to terms with CB Tracy Porter, formerly of the Raiders.

Porter, 28 in August, started all 16 games for Oakland last season, playing 1,016 defensive snaps. It was the first time in his six-year career he played a full season. Porter can play both outside and in the slot. With DeAngelo Hall and David Amerson looking like the outside corners, Porter will likely replace Josh Wilson at nickel.

Free agent CB Tracy Porter is visiting the Giants.

Porter has been getting burned in coverage for years, but NFL teams still seem to see potential in him. He's 27 years old with experience covering the slot and playing outside. He'd enter a camp battle to start with the G-Men.

Raiders CB Tracy Porter (concussion) is practicing Wednesday.

Porter suffered a concussion in the third quarter of Monday night's game, but was able to practice on a limited basis. He's on track to gain full medical clearance for Week 4 against the Redskins.

Raiders CB Tracy Porter has been diagnosed with a concussion.

Porter sustained the injury when he got kneed in the head by teammate Lamarr Houston on Monday night. If he can't go in Week 4, the Raiders would be forced to move Mike Jenkins into the slot, leaving D.J. Haydena and Phillip Adams outside. It would be great news for Robert Griffin III as the Redskins play at Oakland next week.
