This Kelvin Benjamin weight issue is getting blown out of proportion.


Recommended Posts

I do think his current weight issues are definitely being overblown.  It's a legitimate point of discussion, but it's still overblown.

The real issue it raises for me is how dedicated is he?  I understand that last year he was limited on what he could do, so it was no surprise that he was not in ideal shape at the start of training camp.  However, he is fully healthy now, and at a time that most young. hungry players are spending time working on their craft, trying to improve their weaknesses, he's let himself get a little soft.

Sure, that doesn't mean he hasn't been working, but logic would tell you that someone working that hard in any physical activity wouldn't put on much weight.  The fact that he has a history of putting on weight and coming into camp a bit out of shape (even going back to college) is a little worrisome.  How is he going to react once he gets that big contract?  Is he going to become complacent and be an albatross on our salary cap?
