Eno Benjamin Fantasy

Arizona Cardinals running back Eno Benjamin is a healthy inactive for Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans. Benjamin is listed as the No. 4 running back on the team's depth chart behind Chase Edmonds, James Conner and Jonathan Ward, so this shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Benjamin didn't see a single snap in the regular season in his rookie campaign after being taken in the seventh round of the draft. The 22-year-old merely represents backfield depth for the Cardinals and can be left to the waiver wire in the vast majority of leagues. Edmonds is expected to be the team's primary back, with Conner sharing touches and potential valuable red-zone looks.

Arizona Cardinals running back Eno Benjamin shined in the team's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. The 5-foot-9, 207-pound running back took advantage of the opportunity given to him against the Cowboys, with five carries for 50 yards and a touchdown. Jonathan Ward also saw action, but suffered an ankle injury. Currently, Benjamin is fourth on the Cardinals depth chart, behind Chase Edmonds, James Conner, and Ito Smith. However, if the second-year back continues his strong performance, he could jump ahead of Smith before the regular season begins. The 22-year-old has a lot of potential, which could propel him to third on the running back depth chart. The Cardinals have two more preseason games -- Chiefs on August 16th and Saints on August 28th -- for Benjamin to impress the coaching staff.

Arizona Cardinals running back Eno Benjamin got some work with the starters on offense during the team's practice on Thursday. The 5-foot-9, 207-pound Benjamin was a seventh-round selection in the 2020 draft and saw zero touches as a rookie. He will open up the season third on the depth chart behind Chase Edmonds and James Conner, so he does not have any immediate fantasy value. His repetitions with the first-team offense could indicate that the Cardinals plan to get him somewhat involved this season, and if the oft-injured Conner misses any time, Benjamin could have a significant role on the team. He could make for an interesting waiver wire acquisition as the season progresses, so don't forget his name.
