Bears Cedric Benson Arrested Again - Fantasy Impact

by Kori Ellis on June 7th, 2008

Cedric Benson of the Chicago Bears was arrested again. He was charged with drunken driving in Austin, Texas. In May, Benson was arrested while driving a boat after failing a sobriety test.

With Roger Goodell handing out harsher punishments than past commissioners, this second arrest promises to result in some sort of suspension. A suspension will obviously lower Benson’s value in fantasy football.

The Bears may be getting close to giving up on Benson. He didn’t play well in 2007 and his 2008 campaign is already looking bad. If the Bears continue to support Benson, he likely has only one more year to prove his worth. Otherwise, the Bears would likely release or trade the running back out of the University of Texas.

The other options for the Bears at running back are Adrian Peterson (the other one), Garrett Wolfe and rookie Matt Forte. The Bears would love for Benson to straighten out all of his one the field and off the field problems, however that is looking less and less likely.
