Offseason injuries continue to pile up for the Saints with Eno Benjamin tearing his Achilles.
Eno Benjamin’s season will end before it even begins as he tore his Achilles this week. The injury leaves the Saints with just 3 RBs, only Kendre Miller and Jamaal Williams while Alvin Kamara is suspended. It’s possible that they bring in a Free Agent soon.
Last season, Benjamin filled in admirably for the Cardinals while James Conner was injured. In Week 7. He had an impressive 113 yard 1 TD game against the Saints. When Conner returned, Benjamin’s role was reduced which ultimately led to his release.
The Achilles injury is one of the toughest to return from for a RB. James Robinson and Cam Akers both struggled last year and they were true starters. Eno Benjamin is only 24, but with his contract ending this season- he’s going to have a tough time making it back onto the field.
