Benjamin Has Been Hampered With Knee Injury

While he hasn't missed a game yet this season, Benjamin has been bothered by this knee, which he injured during Week 6 against the Broncos.

Benjamin has 35 receptions for 465 yards and two touchdowns in his first year with the Chargers after four seasons with the Cleveland Browns.

Benjamin struggled to establish himself as an impact player early in his career and never topped 314 receiving yards or three touchdown catches in his first three seasons. However, he experienced a breakout campaign in 2015 with 966 receiving yards and five touchdown catches and used his speed to develop into a deep threat with 14.2 yards per catch.
