Scouting report

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Los Angeles Rams

Eno Benjamin was relegated to complementary duties again last week against the Seahawks, as James Conner returned to action. It was a negative game script anyway, but Conner also received five targets compared to just one for Benjamin, who finished with a mere 27 total yards on five touches. This week, Benjamin has a tough matchup against the Rams and Conner is expected to be active again. He’s safe to drop in most leagues.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Eno Benjamin was held to just 22 yards on nine carries last week against the Vikings, although he was able to add 23 receiving yards on four catches. Benjamin has had his moments, but he’s far from a sure thing, even when James Conner is out. Conner is expected back this week, relegating Benjamin to a complementary role again, making him a low-end RB3 option in PPR formats at best. Still, he’s worth rostering given the injury history of Conner, and he’ll enter fringe-RB2 territory if Conner is a late scratch, as he was last week.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Minnesota Vikings

Eno Benjamin had a nice game last week filling in for James Conner, rushing for 92 yards and a touchdown, while adding 21 yards on four receptions. Benjamin will likely return to a complementary role as James Conner is set to return this week against the Vikings, but keep an eye on Conner’s status. If Conner is out for a third straight week, Benjamin becomes a sneaky low-end RB2 option. With Conner active, however, leave Benjamin on the bench.

Update: With Conner out, Benjamin should be a nice option for fantasy managers looking for a RB2 option.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. New Orleans Saints

Eno Benjamin had an underwhelming day as a starter last week against the Seahawks, catching three balls and rushing 15 times for a total of 65 yards from scrimmage. Benjamin also ended the game with a foot injury and his status is in question going into this week.

Assuming Benjamin plays, he has a semi-tough matchup against a Saints defense that ranks 11th in aFPA to opposing running backs. Benjamin is also nicked up, so be sure to check the injury report before using him. We have him ranked as a low-end RB2 option, but be ready with a replacement option – Keaontay Ingram for example – in case you need a last-second swap. Also, note the status of James Conner and Darrell Williams, as they will be in play if they can get healthy as well.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Seattle Seahawks

Eno Benjamin benefited the most from injuries to James Conner and Darrell Williams last week, turning eight carries and three receptions into 53 yards and a touchdown. Benjamin profiles as a complementary back, but he’s had at least six touches in every game this year, making him an interesting player to keep an eye on.

Should Conner miss time this week, Benjamin could be in line for additional touches against a Seahawks defense that ranks 29th in aFPA to opposing running backs. As such, he should be a top waiver pickup for fantasy managers looking for running back help. If Benjamin gets double-digit touches again, while continuing to see considerable targets, he could see RB2 numbers. Start him if Conner is out.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Eno Benjamin is averaging 7.8 touches per game even though his snap count has decreased over the past three weeks. He’s an interesting deep-stash option in PPR formats, but until the actual production and role starts to expand – 180 total yards and no touchdowns on the season so far – he should remain on waivers in most leagues. Don’t start him this week against a tough Philadelphia defense.

ARI RB Eno Benjamin - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Carolina Panthers

Eno Benjamin had only 23 yards last week, but he had five rushing attempts and four targets. He’s had four targets in each of his first three games this season and at least seven total touches as well. Those aren’t big numbers, but that kind of role is worth monitoring in deeper leagues, especially in PPR formats. For now, however, leave him on the bench. The workload and production just aren’t quite enticing enough to warrant a spot in fantasy lineups.
