The Facts: HC Ron Rivera said on Tuesday, via Steve Reed of the Associated Press, that Benjamin is "where he needs to be" in terms of his weight.
Diehards Line:
Rivera voiced some displeasure with wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin’s weight in April and the wideout’s condition became a running storyline in Carolina throughout their offseason program. It wasn’t the first time that Benjamin’s weight elicited a negative response from Rivera, which, along with the time of year, explains why the story blew up as it did. It doesn’t look like we’ll see a third round during training camp. Benjamin will now move on to trying to improve on his 63 catches for 941 yards and seven touchdowns from the 2016 season.
