Explosive, Versatile Gopher RB With Proven Big-Play Production
Bennett was a compact, all-purpose back for Minnesota who combined burst, toughness, and versatility, including a 2010 season in which he led the team with 98 carries and scored 6 of the Gophers’ 13 rushing touchdowns. He also surpassed 2,000 career rushing yards, showing durable, steady production rather than one-flash hype. At 5-foot-9 and 191 pounds, his value was in quick cuts, versatility, and bringing energy in a run-first offense, making him a fit for teams that want a reliable, physical, change-of-pace back.
