Benjamin Crucial to Chargers' Passing Attack 

Benjamin, who leads the team in receptions and is tied for the team lead in receiving touchdowns, has become the Chargers' go-to option at receiver.

Benjamin signed a four-year deal with the Chargers in the offseason after spending his first four years with the Cleveland Browns.
