Mike Shanahan literally wishes Ryan Torain ill ... but he's just kidding.

"I'm hoping that he's not doing anything this weekend," Shanahan said of the former Redskins RB who was signed by the Giants yesterday. "Hopefully he's sick and he's not playing very good. No, Ryan Torain is a great young man, and he's got excellent running ability. I was kind of really surprised he was on the street as long as he was, but I think the one thing you can look for is a guy that can make people miss and a guy that can carry the football. He's a great kid."
