Trey Benson injury timeline: Cardinals RB could return soon; Jonathan Gannon reveals exact plan


The Arizona Cardinals were hit by a major injury update on Wednesday. Running back Trey Benson, who suffered a knee injury during the team’s 23-20 loss to the Seattle Seahawks last Thursday, has been placed on the injured reserve (IR) list. While the initial injury report declared his status as questionable for the Week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans, coach Jonathan Gannon revealed the severity, saying Benson will be out for some time.

The 23-year-old will miss at least four games. According to the Cardinals’ schedule, those games will be against the Titans in Week 5, the Indianapolis Colts in Week 7, the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, and then the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9. He could come back in Week 10 against the Seahawks.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the RB has undergone arthroscopic surgery to repair his meniscus. He will miss four to six weeks.
