Straight out of left field, the Bengals Press Box announced that Cedric Benson is listed as the starting running back over Chris Perry. It should be noted that Perry is active for today’s game.
What an unbelievable turn of events for Perry and the Bengals, who must have seen something in Chris Perry to just release Rudi Johnson. And then there’s Benson, who could not buy a yard in Chicago.ÂÂ
I don’t recommend starting Benson or Perry today against a strong Pittsburgh Defense, and a Bengals offense starring Ryan Fitzpatrick at the QB position. I do however recommend picking up Benson just in case he looks like he did in college, a bonafide workhorse. Benson is available in 90% of fantasy leagues.ÂÂ
