News

  • Lands on IR

    Benjamin (quad) has been placed on IR.

    Analysis: Benjamin hasn't produced much while working behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, but his injury is another hit to the Chargers' depth at wideout and will likely necessitate a move to fortify the position. Currently next up on the depth chart behind the team's top duo are Geremy Davis and Andre Patton.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Benjamin (quad) didn't practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Five games into his 2019 season, Benjamin has logged just six catches (on 16 targets) for 30 yards. He figures to remain off the fantasy radar as long as fellow wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams remain healthy.

    Published: Wed, Oct 16 at 3:49pm by Rotowire.com

  • Nothing doing in loss

    Benjamin caught one of four targets for no gain during Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Benjamin hasn't yet scored or surpassed 15 receiving yards in a contest this season. As an afterthought in the Chargers' offense behind Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler, Benjamin remains off the fantasy radar.

  • Still a non factor

    Benjamin (hip) caught one of his two targets for 13 yards in the 20-13 loss Sunday to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Playing just 40 offensive snaps, Benjamin was clearly the Chargers' third option at wideout, easily outpacing Andre Patton (16 snaps) in terms of playing time, however that led to little in the way of actual production, registering a fourth consecutive game under 20 receiving yards. It's hard to suggest Benjamin's fantasy outlook will improve, particularly with Mike Williams (back) on the mend and Melvin Gordon back from his early-season holdout.

  • Listed as active Sunday

    Benjamin (hip) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: As is Mike Williams (back), which sets the stage for Benjamin to serve as the Chargers' No. 3 receiver Sunday. The 5-foot-10, 175-pounder can break off the occasional big play, but he's logged just four catches on 10 targets for 17 yards in his three games to date this season, despite recording 30 or more snaps in each of those contests.

  • Trending in right direction

    Benjamin (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Benjamin was a full participant in practice Friday, which bodes well for his game-time status. Considering Mike Williams (back) was also able to practice in full capacity, it appears as if the Chargers will have their top three wide receivers available, likely relegating Benjamin to his customary complementary role. He's seen just 10 targets across three games despite playing 30 or more snaps in each contest.

  • Limited second straight day

    Benjamin (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Benjamin was also limited in Wednesday's session, so he may need to advance to full participation in Friday's practice in order for the Chargers to feel more bullish on his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Broncos. If cleared to play this weekend, Benjamin should be in store for another healthy snap count as a complementary option in the passing game behind top target Keenan Allen.

  • Listed as limited Wednesday

    Benjamin (hip) was limited at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Mike Williams (back) was also limited Wednesday, which suggests that the duo could return to provide top wideout Keenan Allen with some support in the team's pass-catching corps Sunday against the Broncos. That would be a welcome development, given that Dontrelle Inman -- who helped fill in for Benjamin and Williams in Week 4 -- has landed on IR with a quadriceps injury.

  • Sitting Sunday

    Benjamin (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Benjamin was given a doubtful designation coming out of Friday's practice, so he was never a good bet to suit up in Week 4. With Benjamin and Mike Williams (back) sidelined, the likes of Dontrelle Inman, Geremy Davis and Andre Patton should be pressed into more enhanced roles alongside top wideout Keenan Allen.

    Published: Sun, Sep 29 at 8:42am by Rotowire.com

  • Slated to sit out Week 4

    Benjamin (hip), who is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, isn't in line to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The doubtful designation already made it unlikely that Benjamin wouldn't play Week 4, but Schefter's report adds further confirmation on that front. Though Benjamin hasn't made a major impact on offense this season, his absence looms larger than it normally might with fellow wideout Mike Williams (back), tight ends Virgil Green (groin) and Hunter Henry (knee) and running back Justin Jackson (calf) already ruled out for the contest.

  • Doubtful for Week 4

    Benjamin (hip) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game in Miami.

    Analysis: With Mike Williams (knee) already ruled out, the Chargers will turn to Dontrelle Inman and Geremy Davis behind target hog Keenan Allen. The team also ruled out tight ends Hunter Henry (knee) and Virgil Green (groin), leaving Sean Culkin and Lance Kendricks as the healthy options at the position. Confirmation of Benjamin's active/inactive status will be available approximately 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

  • Not practicing Friday

    Benjamin (hip) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With that, Benjamin looks pretty iffy for Sunday's game against the Dolphins. If he misses the contest, added snaps in the Chargers' Week 4 offense would be available for Dontrelle Inman and Geremy Davis.

    Published: Fri, Sep 27 at 10:26am by Rotowire.com

  • Idle for practice

    Benjamin (hip) didn't participate in practice Thursday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With no reps through the Chargers' first two practices of Week 4, Benjamin's availability for Sunday's game against the Dolphins is beginning to look like a question mark. Even when ostensibly healthy this season, Benjamin has made little impact on offense for the Chargers, hauling in only four of his 10 targets for 17 yards and no scores.

    Published: Thu, Sep 26 at 1:52pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Sidelined by hip issue

    Benjamin (hip) didn't practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Mike Williams (back) also missed Wednesday's practice, and if either of the two are limited at all (or out) Sunday against the Dolphins, Dontrelle Inman would be next up for added looks in the Chargers' Week 4 passing game.

  • Does little with targets

    Benjamin caught two of his five targets for five yards in a 27-20 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

    Analysis: It's clear Benjamin is firmly behind Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams in terms of the Chargers' target tree. What's more, the speedy veteran did little with his season-high five targets, thus continuing a season-long trend in which Benjamin is averaging an astoundingly low 1.7 yards per target.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Catchless in loss

    Benjamin was targeted twice during Sunday's 13-10 loss to Detroit, but did not record a catch.

    Analysis: Benjamin has jus 12 receiving yards through two weeks. He has been held to 25 yard or fewer in 14 of his past 18 regular season games. Benjamin doesn't seem to have much of a role in a passing offense that runs heavily through Keenan Allen and is seeking a heavy dose of Austin Ekeler to start the year.

  • Held to 12 receiving yards

    Benjamin caught two of his three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Besides Keenan Allen and Austin Ekeler, no Chargers pass catcher was much of a factor Sunday, including Benjamin. The speedy veteran did tally 31 offensive snaps, but working behind the aforementioned duo plus Mike Williams (knee) and Hunter Henry, it's unlikely Benjamin will put together consistent production.

  • Returns to practice

    Benjamin (undisclosed) participated in practice Saturday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: The Chargers rested a number of their veterans in their preseason opener, including Benjamin, but it was still nice to see the speedy wideout return to practice after missing time earlier in the week.

  • Does not play Thursday

    Benjamin (undisclosed) did not play in Thursday's 17-13 preseason loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: This shouldn't come as a surprise, as the Chargers wound up sitting a number of their projected starters including Philip Rivers, Keenan Allen, Mike Pouncey, Casey Hayward and Thomas Davis. Benjamin hasn't participated in practice since Tuesday, but the injury seems minor considering the team has declined to release any sort of information regarding the severity. The veteran wide receiver was listed as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Allen and Mike Williams in the team's latest unofficial depth…read more

  • Game-time decision Thursday

    Benjamin (undisclosed) is expected to be a game-time decision for Thursday's preseason contest against the Cardinals, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Chargers appear poised to rest a number of their key players, including the team's most recent first- and second-round picks, as well as a handful of projected starters including quarterback Philip Rivers. It's unclear what type of injury Benjamin might have picked up, but the lack of information surrounding his status likely suggests this is a minor issue.

  • Not participating in practice

    Benjamin (undisclosed) was not available for practice Tuesday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: Both Benjamin and Andre Patton weren't able to participate in Tuesday's practice, although it's unclear as to what's keeping either player back. It seems likely the Chargers will provide some sort of update should the injury become serious, particularly since their preseason opener takes place Thursday against the Cardinals.

  • Signs one-year extension

    Benjamin and the Chargers have agreed to a one-year extension through 2020, with the wideout receiving a signing bonus in exchange for reducing his 2019 base salary, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Coming off a 2018 campaign with just 12 receptions, seven carries and five punt returns in 12 games, Benjamin was scheduled for a non-guaranteed $5.25 million base salary and a $6.5 million cap hit in 2019. The new deal secures his roster spot for the upcoming season, and the departure of Tyrell Williams (Raiders) leaves Benjamin as the favorite for the No. 3 job at wide receiver. There is some potential for Dylan Cantrell, Geremy Davis or Artavis Scott to make it a competition, but Benjamin…read more

  • Still in team's plans

    Coach Anthony Lynn said Benjamin, Dylan Cantrell and Geremy Davis need to step up after the Chargers lost Tyrell Williams to the Raiders this offseason, Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Chargers cornerback Desmond King emerging as one of the top return men in the league, Benjamin needs to lock down the No. 3 spot at wide receiver to have any shot at justifying his non-guaranteed $5.25 million base salary in the final season of a four-year, $24 million contract. The 29-year-old still seems to be a part of the team's plan at this stage of the offseason, but his spot on the 53-man roster won't be safe unless he agrees to a pay cut. Benjamin averaged 23.2 offensive snaps in…read more

  • No receptions in season-ending loss

    Benjamin failed to corral either of his targets Sunday in the Chargers' 41-28 divisional-round loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Even with a 35-7 halftime deficit forcing the Chargers into catch-up mode early, Benjamin still couldn't carve out a sizable role in the passing attack behind fellow wideouts Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams and Mike Williams. Benjamin only played 21 of the Chargers' 71 offensive snaps during the contest, marking the fourth straight game in which he's been below 25 snaps. Benjamin is under contract for 2019, but it wouldn't be surprising if the Chargers parted ways with him this offseason in light…read more

  • Catches three passes

    Benjamin caught all three of his targets for 11 yards in the 23-17 wild-card win over the Ravens on Sunday.

    Analysis: The Chargers opted to use Austin Ekeler as their primary jet sweep option, utilizing Benjamin more as a running decoy than anything else. There's a possibility Benjamin could see more than his 16 offensive snaps next week in an effort to implement more lateral movement against a suspect Patriots defense, but he still ranks far below the likes of Melvin Gordon, Keenan Allen, Antonio Gates and Mike Williams when it comes to potential receiving options.

  • Minimal impact in 2018

    Benjamin finished the season with 12 receptions for 186 yards and a touchdown across 12 games. He also carried the ball seven times for 41 yards.

    Analysis: In only six of his 12 outings did Benjamin play more than 20 offensive snaps, as the Chargers essentially deployed him primarily as a downfield decoy throughout the campaign. Injuries also limited Benjamin's role on special teams, with Desmond King emerging as the primary returner instead. With just one year remaining and a dead cap hit of $1.2 million left on the contract he signed in 2016, Benjamin is uncertain to remain with Los Angeles in 2019.

  • Doesn't factor much in loss

    Benjamin caught one of his three targets for 11 yards and also carried the ball once for six yards in the loss Saturday to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Keenan Allen dominated the targets among Chargers wide receivers Saturday, as Tyrell Williams, Mike Williams and Benjamin combined to catch three of eight targets for a measly 30 yards. Benjamin is very clearly the No. 4 or 5 option in terms of receivers when everyone is healthy, but his speed makes him arguably a more important real-life asset than fantasy.

  • Pivotal catches in win

    Benjamin caught two of his three targets for 57 yards and also registered one carry for eight yards in the 29-28 win over the Chiefs on Thursday.

    Analysis: Benjamin's two catches didn't come until the fourth quarter, but they were incredibly pivotal, as both wound up extending the eventual game-winning drive. Even with the likes of Keenan Allen (hip) out for much of the second half, Benjamin barely factored in the offense and remains a longshot in terms of fantasy relevance.

  • Catches lone target

    Benjamin caught his lone reception for 11 yards in Sunday's 26-21 victory over the Bengals.

    Analysis: One week after snagging his first touchdown of the season, Benjamin promptly fell back down to earth, posting his fifth game this season with one or fewer catches. It's difficult to recommend starting Benjamin until he factors more into the offense given he's averaging 1.9 targets this season.

  • Catches long touchdown

    Benjamin caught both of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the 33-30 win over the Steelers on Sunday. He also carried the ball for a yard.

    Analysis: Benjamin's touchdown accounted for all of his yardage, as the speedy receiver broke free for a 46-yard touchdown after burning single coverage. The return of Tyrell Williams (quadriceps) relegated Benjamin to the fourth receiving option, but his speed has quietly made him slip into the rotation more as of late. It would be difficult to recommend starting Benjamin for fantasy purposes, but his presence has been undeniably positive for an offense that has seemingly only gotten better as the year…read more

  • Catches three passes

    Benjamin caught all three of his targets for 47 yards in the win Sunday over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Benjamin had played in 50 total offensive snaps the previous three weeks combined but saw 44 on Sunday as a direct result of Tyrell Williams' quadriceps injury, which nearly kept him off the field entirely despite him being cleared for the contest. The speedy receiver simply doesn't receive enough looks currently to be a consistent fantasy option, but Benjamin would stand to benefit greatly if Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams or Mike Williams were to miss substantial time.

  • Does not record catch

    Benjamin did not record a catch during the 23-22 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

    Analysis: Benjamin did see three targets, but the 29-year-old was unable to corral any of them. It's difficult to suggest Benjamin should be used in fantasy format at this point, as he's caught or carried the ball six times in six games this season.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Does next to nothing once again

    Benjamin took a carry for minus-two yards in the 20-6 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    Analysis: Benjamin has played in just 31 offensive snaps over the past two weeks as the speedy receiver has largely been used as a decoy in the passing game. A potentially difficult matchup against the Broncos next week won't make Benjamin an attractive fantasy option any time soon.

  • Loses two yards

    Benjamin lost two yards on a carry and was unable to haul in his lone target during Sunday's 25-17 win over Seattle.

    Analysis: Benjamin has been hobbled for much of the season with a foot issue and it looks as if the Chargers offense has passed him by. After five targets in Week 1, he has just three total targets in his three outings since. He has a favorable matchup Sunday against an Oakland defense ranked in the bottom 10 of the league at 263 passing yards per game, but he's unlikely to get the targets necessary to take advantage of it.
