Who the hell is Trinity Benson? A receiver who can't get on the field for the injury-depleted Detroit Lions.
Less than two months after they traded a pair of draft picks to acquire him, the Lions de-activated Benson for today's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Benson has been a bit player on offense this season, even after the Lions lost two of their top pass catchers to injury. Tyrell Williams has not played since Week 1 because of a brain injury, and Quintez Cephus underwent surgery for a broken collar bone this week.
In September, first-year Lions general manager Brad Holmes traded fifth- and seventh-round draft choices next spring to the Denver Broncos for Benson and a sixth-round pick in 2023.
