Carolina is reporting that he showed up to an off-season program overweight. I hope that he is healthy and is able to get his weight down.

It was in a link within the article but it said that reports of 280 were wrong...

Rivera didn’t say what Benjamin’s current weight is, but said a broadcast report that put Benjamin at close to 280 pounds was wrong.

With as tall as is, that's still way overweight. He needs that burst of speed. Needs to be at 230 ish.

Corey simon did this too. I will say it has to be really freakin' hard to go from eating a metric crap ton of food during the season / workouts to getting time off and only needing a fraction of the amount to maintain weight.
