Eno Benjamin - coachmcneil71 - 11-14-2022
He runs hard and had some hype coming into the season. Have to wonder if he has personal issues? That said, he's a talented back and runs very hard. Reminds me of the late Marion Barber. Discuss...

According to an article I read on Fanduel, his release was a surprise. He only had 1 solid performance in Conners absence so hopefully not a character issue but a performance one.

His release, be it for personal or performance reasons, is a red flag.

I have Conner in my family football league. They have been hyping Eno all season, even before it began, as a replacement for Conner. I think that they are pleasantly pleased with the other young RB on their roster. That said, Eno looked pretty damn good in that night game a few weeks ago. Barring any personal issues, he clearly belongs on an NFL roster. He should land on his feet.

Eno Benjamin has a solid YPC and can catch.
His pass blocking might also be solid, as he hadn't allowed a single pressure all year across 19 pass blocking snaps.
He is a bit smaller though, only 5'9", 207 lb. Very Gio-esque.
It is concerning that he got let go in the middle of his second season, but he was only a 7th round draft pick.
If there's nothing character-wise that would have caused the release, I'd take a flier on him.
He could end up being a solid RBBC guy.

Texans claimed him per Schefter.

I was pretty certain that he would find another team. Kid has quicks and runs with a viciousness. A slightly undersized back that loves to deliver the blow when being tackled. I love seeing that kind of stuff out of RBs.

Plus he can pick up the blitz according to Ocho. Nice pickup by the Texans.
