Approval workflow has status “Rejected” when sent to approver

Question
I use the standard "Publishing approval" workflow on a publishing site with SharePoint 2013.
The issue is, that when an editor sends the item for approval to the content manager, the item has stated: "Rejected".
My first idea was that the editor tries to edit the item after starting the workflow - this is not the case.
What are other possible reasons for this behavior?
OTHER TIPS
Permission issue? Contribute access does not grant "approve", just add/edit.
"Library Settings" -> "Versioning Settings" -> Require Content Approval for Submitted Items - if "Yes" then contributors can't "approve".
