The main reason Benson was available when we signed him wa sthat he had picked up 2 drinking related charges in just a few months and the Bears released him. He ended up beating both of the charges. I don't remember all of the details but one of them did seem really bogus.
Worked out great for us. Chris Perry was crippled but he was our #1 RB in 2008. He had the lowest season average per carry (2.6) in Bengal history (min 100 att). We signed Benson 4 games into the season and after a slow start he finished with 747 yards and a 3.5 avg.
