HOW DUCKETT CHANGES THE REDSKINS’ BACKFIELD:
RB Clinton Portis
Still the franchise back, but his touchdown and carry totals may go down if the Redskins opt to use Duckett in goal-line/short yardage situations.

RB Ladell Betts
The starting running back Saturday at New England, this is a shot to his chances of proving to other teams he’s worthy of No. 1 status.
RB Rock Cartwright
Admitted after practice yesterday he may be the odd man out of the rotation, but his special teams play should keep him on the roster this season.
FB Mike Sellers
Got three carries and gained 26 yards last week against the Jets, but his role on offense — goal-line blocking back and receiver — is now muddled.
FB Nehemiah Broughton
The second-year player’s chances of sticking on the roster have taken a major hit because he fumbled against the Jets and now Duckett’s arrival.
FB Manuel White
Missed all of last season with an injury and hasn’t stood out during the preseason; if he stays, he will be on the practice squad.
