Place your Betts
If you have an expendable player on your roster and you’re in a league with an unlimited number of injuries, then pick up Washington running back Ladell Betts.
According to NFL.com, Redskins coach Joe Gibbs said, “…obviously it’s going to be a while” before starter Clinton Portis returns to the field after dislocating his left shoulder Sunday night.
If that’s not enough to consider picking up Betts, then consider that there has been trade whispers about him landing in New York to replace Curtis Martin. The move isn’t likely, but it’s something to think about.
Betts has missed 16 games the last four seasons due to injury, so if you’re wondering whose next on the depth chart it’s Rock Cartwright.
Betts averaged 3.8 yard per carry as a backup last season and 4.1 in 2004, and could rack up some serious points in Gibbs’ run happy offense if given the chance. I’ll be watching this situation closely and you should too.
