Kansas City&#8217;s backfield is already steep featuring backs such as Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire at the top of the depth chart.<\/p>\n<p>Former Cardinals running back Keaontay Ingram is also on Kansas City&#8217;s roster heading into the next stage of the offseason.<\/p>\n<p>After playing at Arizona State, Benjamin was made a seventh-round draft pick by the Cardinals in 2020. He played two full seasons with Arizona &#8211; primarily on special teams &#8211; before being released 11 weeks into the 2022 season after reports suggested he was cut due to problems with the coaching staff.<\/p>\n<div id=\"yb_recirc_container_mobile\" class=\"\">\n<div class=\"aditude_inline_container\">\n<div id=\"aditude_ad_article_inline_1\" class=\"aditude_div\" data-google-query-id=\"COr13M7c9oUDFbFRwgUddacGtQ\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/63317524\/yardbarker\/articles\/article_dynamic_1_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Benjamin was quickly snagged on waivers by the Houston Texans, though he was released from the team less than a month afterwards. It&#8217;s unknown why Houston cut ties with Benjamin, though he did end up joining the New Orleans Saints shortly after before rupturing his Achilles and missing the entire 2023 season.<\/p>\n<p>Benjamin just turned 25 years old and has played in 24 career games with three starts. He boasts a 3.9 yards per carry career average.<\/p>\n<p>As for Arizona, the Cardinals walk into 2024 with James Conner entering the final year of his contract. Florida State running back Trey Benson was drafted on Day 2 of the 2024 NFL Draft with Michael Carter and Emari Demercado on the roster, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kansas City Chiefs unveiled their rookie minicamp roster, and a familiar Arizona Cardinals face is present for a try-out.
