Silver And Black Pride on Malik Benson

Benson's 1-for-5 night with two third-down failures likely costs him third WR spot

Sixth-round pick had a disappointing performance that likely ended his hopes of beating out Jack Bech for the third wide receiver spot on the depth chart. Hauled in just one of five targets on the evening; had two failed catch attempts, including one where a pass was ripped out of his hands that should have been a completion. Both failures came on third downs, which is particularly damaging for a player competing for roster depth. Despite a strong training camp that suggested a bigger role than expected in year one, this performance significantly hurt his depth chart standing.
