Trey Benson

Cardinals placed Trey Benson (ankle) on injured reserve.

It ends his season. Benson never really came close to grabbing a full share of carries from James Conner, maxing out at 11 carries for 10 yards in Week 2. It was a fairly disappointing rookie season from a dynasty perspective, one capped with the fact that the Cardinals extended Conner’s contract in-season. Benson finishes with a 63/291/1 rushing line and six receptions for 59 yards on his only six targets. Entering the second year of his rookie deal, Benson will need to take a big step forward this offseason to justify the early third-round pick the Cardinals spent on him.
