The Arizona Cardinals will host the Seattle Seahawks in Week 4. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Trey Benson.

Should You Start or Sit Trey Benson in Week 4?
James Conner’s season is over, and that opens the door for Trey Benson, a 2024 third-round pick who averaged 6.1 yards per carry in college and scored on 7.6% of his rush attempts.
The Cardinals believe in this player and want him to be the running back of the future, something that gives me confidence that we are looking at him picking up 85% of Conner’s role.
This is a tough spot to debut as the lead man (Seahawks: second-fewest yards allowed per carry after contact to opposing running backs this season), but I think the versatility can save the day for fantasy purposes.
Benson is currently my RB25 for the week, ranking ahead of Javory Croskey-Merritt, Quinshon Judkins, Tony Pollard, and David Montgomery if you are forced into making a decision.
