Cardinals running back Trey Benson suffers another knee issue at camp
Summary

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson is dealing with a flare-up of his surgically repaired left knee, as reported on August 4, 2026. Head coach Mike LaFleur does not anticipate a lengthy absence but expects Benson to miss the Hall of Fame Game on August 6. This setback follows a previous season lost to a torn meniscus, highlighting ongoing health struggles for Benson. The Cardinals have bolstered their running back position by reworking James Conner’s contract, signing Tyler Allgeier, and drafting Jeremiyah Love, complicating Benson's bid for a roster spot. The team also rested key starters on August 3, providing opportunities for younger players in training camp.
