NFL Films and HBO Hard Knocks director Terrell Riley teased 'shocking' footage of Eno Benjamin, who was mysteriously released by the Arizona Cardinals earlier this week.
"Absolutely. I would say. We were hearing a lot that he was a fan favorite, being a hometown guy." Riley added. I'll say yes, stay tuned and watch Show 3."
After being asked for more details on Benjamin and his release, Riley said:"It was shocking to me, yeah, I will say that. For us, yes. That have been documenting and doing these shows for a while, yeah, it was a little shocking."An Arizona State product that was drafted by the Cardinals in the seventh round in the 2020 NFL draft, Benjamin had stepped up his game this season before his release.
He had 299 rushing yards and 184 receiving yards on the season filling in for previously injured starter James Conner. Benjamin averaged 4.3 yards per carry and had two rushing touchdowns on the year. However, when Conner returned in Arizona's win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, Benjamin did not get a carry and had one kickoff return for 10 yards.The Arizona Republic's Kent Somers detailed what happened between Benjamin and the Cardinals in a recent column, writing that, who were awarded a waiver wire claim on the running back, shortly after his release.
Too bad the Cardinals don't face the Texans this season. That would have made for a very interesting future episode of"Hard Knocks."Reach Jeremy Cluff at
