Benson Out for Season, Cardinals Roster Shake-Up | Arizona Cardinals News

Arizona Cardinals waive running back Trey Benson with an injury designation, sending him to IR and likely sidelining him for another season after a torn meniscus sidelined him since Week 4. A third-round pick in 2024, Benson’s recovery has been slow and his roster chances slim amid competition from Tyler Allgeier, Jeremiyah Love, James Conner, Bam Knight, and Corey Kiner—especially as preseason performances spotlight emerging talent. With limited IR return slots and a potential settlement on the table, the Cardinals face tough decisions: should they use a precious spot for Benson, who’s played just 17 games total, or let him walk as a free agent? The team also watches closely as Love nears readiness for the opener, adding urgency to their depth chart reshuffling.
