Army’s Lloyd Benson III brings slotback speed, return value, and veteran versatility
In the 2025 season, Lloyd Benson III played in all 13 games for Army and handled multiple jobs—running back plus kick and punt returns—showing the kind of toughness and adaptability coaches love in a service-academy back.[1] He’s a compact 5-foot-8, 193-pound senior from Baton Rouge with real utility value, and his strongest differentiator is not a gaudy stat line but his ability to contribute in space, survive the grind, and spark field position on special teams.[1][2] If a team wants a proven, low-drama, high-rep role player who can do the dirty work and still touch the ball in creative ways, Benson is the kind of fit that quietly wins roster spots.[1][2]
