The Facts:
The idea promoted in some corners that Benson was woefully behind in rehabilitating his broken left leg/ankle were off. Considerably. If running around in shorts and a helmet counts for much, and we know it doesn't, Benson looked pretty good Wednesday. In fact, if Benson had not been wearing his No. 32 jersey, you might not have recognized him. "I've lost about 10 pounds," he said. "Alternating my diet a little bit, and I feel great."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Some complained Benson was out of shape last season, something he always refuted, but Sun-Times staffer Brad Biggs advised readers the former first-round pick looks to be a new man and was in good spirits following the two-hour practice. "I feel faster, stronger, clearer, healthier," he said. "I feel great." As for if it is a make or break summer and season for the fourth pick of the 2005 draft? "I don't know," he said. "I haven't really thought about that. But if it is, come on, make or break, I'm sure I'm going to make it happen."
