Bengals RB Cedric Benson Unhappy With The Way He Was Used In Offense

Bengals running back Cedric Benson will become a free-agent in March. He is also unhappy with the way he was used this season in the Bengals offense because he shared the workload with Bernard Scott. “I don’t know what the future’s going to hold. You never know going into being a free agent, things like that,” Benson told Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer. “I don’t have any closed doors, so we’ll see what the future holds.” Even offensive coordinator Jay Gruden acknowledged that trying to keep both Benson and Scott happy was a difficult balancing act. “From a consistency standpoint you’d like to get Bernard more carries, more touches and Cedric has earned the right to be a feature back in this offense the last couple of years,” Gruden said. “The more you give it to Bernard the more you’ve got Cedric over there scratching his head and not real happy. Really, to me, on a good football team nobody should worry about who’s scoring or who’s getting the ball so long as the team is moving.” Said Benson of the offensive changes: “I wasn’t a big fan of it. Granted I don’t make those decisions or calls and I have to find a way to make it work. It was something they started soon after the first game. There was a vision where they saw the offense going. I may not like it or agree with it but I’ll make it work if given the opportunity.”
