Fantasy Impact:

Benjamin's fantasy stock has gone down recently due to his disappointing junior season and showing up to camp out of shape. However, the tides have changed, as the Panthers decided to pick up his fifth-year option. While Greg Olsen and Christian McCaffrey are the two most intriguing fantasy players on the Panthers' roster, you cannot overlook Benjamin. Other receivers like Michael Crabtree took a couple years to recovery from big injuries, so Benjamin should be given another shot to be on your fantasy team. This decision shows the Panthers have faith in him and that you should have faith in him too.
