Brendin Benoit is a developing interior force for NCCU’s defensive front
Benoit is a 6-foot-1, 285-pound defensive lineman for North Carolina Central who has already flashed disruption potential, including his first career sack in 2024 against Virginia Lynchburg after seeing action in two games that season. He looks like a classic inside-body player: compact, sturdy, and built to help versus the run while giving a defense a heavier rotational presence. The big question is volume, not talent; his résumé is still short, but the size and early production suggest a useful developmental fit if you want a young DL with power and room to grow.
