If Betts had snapped his Achilles before Week one, he would not have been a starter that was lost for the year. He was a back-up, slated to start because of injury -- same as Prioleau.

Because of injury? Where does the article say that?

The Redskins have four players on injured reserve: Portis; Prioleau, who was slated to start at safety ahead of Adam Archuleta in Week 1 before injuring his knee on the opening kickoff; kicker John Hall (groin); and tight end Christian Fauria (ankle).
