Trey Benson drew more Week 2 targets than Harrison, illustrating how Arizona spreads production beyond the top receiver. Benson’s involvement signals which players could benefit when Harrison is bracketed or when the offense looks to diversify play-calling to keep defenses honest.

Benson’s Week 2 surge behind Conner signals standalone upside beyond backup status; as he stays involved in rushing and receiving, he’s a solid handcuff with upside if Arizona leans on him.

Trey Benson rising role, versatile back, potential fantasy spark

Benson flashed explosiveness in Week 1, outgaining Conner on limited touches (8 carries, 68 yards) and logging a 33% snap share. His growing involvement signals a true two-back ceiling in Arizona, particularly against a Panthers defense that allowed big rushing days previously. Expect continued expansion of his role with upside in Week 2.

Benson is highlighted as a dynamic addition in Arizona after eight carries for 69 yards in Week 1. With Conner in the mix, Benson’s workload could rise modestly, and the 33.5 rushing yards line looks attainable given the Cardinals’ emphasis on ground game efficiency.
