It's actually about the fact that Betts is entering the last year of his contract and that a move had to be made now. Apparently, there were talks between Betts and the Skins of a contract extension. Maybe that didn't get done? Maybe Betts wanted to be a featured back somewhere else as he's mentioned? If anything, the Duckett pickup is going to provide a good 1-2 punch as well as good backup if Portis goes down.
