| Betts' role to decrease in Skins' new offense |
| Ladell Betts - RB - WAS - Feb. 12 |
The Redskins now view Ladell Betts solely as a backup to Clinton Portis.
Joe Gibbs used to call Portis and Betts interchangeable. Betts will be used more on special teams this year, replacing free agent KR Rock Cartwright. New coach Jim Zorn raved about Portis' receiving ability at his introductory presser. It sounds like Betts could even lose his third-down role in 2008.
