Eno Benjamin News
New Orleans Saints running backs Dwayne Washington (illness) and Eno Benjamin are both inactive on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. The Saints claimed Benjamin off waivers from the Houston Texans on Wednesday, but he's not ready to be active on game day yet. Mark Ingram II (knee) is out for the season, so with both Washington and Benjamin not playing on Sunday, veteran David Johnson is slated to serve as Alvin Kamara's primary backup against the Falcons. Johnson won't have any standalone fantasy value in just his second game of the season. He had one carry for minus-four yards and caught a pass for 11 yards in Week 11. Johnson hasn't scored a touchdown since 2020 with the Texans.
The New Orleans Saints claimed running back Eno Benjamin off of waivers on Wednesday. Benjamin appeared in games for the Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans this year but was ultimately waived by both teams. The third-year back impressed early in the season when starting in place of an injured James Conner, so it is possible he earns some playing time for the Saints down the stretch with Mark Ingram II (knee) placed on Injured Reserve. Still, Benjamin shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a dynasty or deep-league stash for the time being.
The Houston Texans waived running back Eno Benjamin on Tuesday, according to a source. Benjamin saw his first action with the Texans in the Week 14 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, carrying the ball three times for one yards on just eight offensive snaps. Rookie standout Dameon Pierce (ankle) suffered a mild high-ankle sprain on Sunday and could miss one to two games, so with Benjamin now out of the picture, Rex Burkhead and Dare Ogunbowale would see expanded roles in Houston's backfield this weekend against the Kansas City Chiefs if Pierce is inactive. Benjamin began the year with the Arizona Cardinals and has 73 combined carries for 300 yards and two touchdowns, adding 24 catches for 184 yards in 12 games (three starts) in 2022. He'll look to latch on with another team for the final four weeks of the regular season.
