Jason Reid of the Washington Post reports coach Jim Zorn has expanded Betts's responsibilities, making him the primary running back on third downs. That previously had been Portis's domain -- as well as every other down for the Redskins' offense -- as long as Portis was physically sound enough to play or not on the sideline during a rare break for him. The main reason for the change, though, is that Betts forced the issue because of what he's done on the field, and the Redskins are eager to give him more work. Source: TheRedZone.com
