STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Meniscus injury, knee flare-up, and injury history led Cardinals to release Benson.

Benson suffered a significant meniscus injury in Week 4 last year that required surgery, with recovery lingering into training camp; he experienced a flare-up with his left knee during training camp that kept him out of practices and preseason games. His injury history also includes an ankle injury as a rookie (missed final two games) and a torn ACL in college (missed entire 2020 season), establishing a pattern of injury proneness that the Cardinals coaching staff deemed too risky to continue investing in.
