2024 Fantasy Outlook
Benton was selected by Pittsburgh in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft and appeared in all 17 games as a rookie. He tallied 36 tackles (16 solo), including a sack, along with two forced fumbles and two pass defenses. Benton started in nine games but was on the field for just 43 percent of the team's defensive snaps last year. He should have a chance to increase his role in 2024 and is slated to serve as Pittsburgh's starting nose tackle. Read Past Outlooks
Plays 15 snaps
Benton (eye) tallied two tackles, including half a sack, in Saturday's 9-3 preseason loss to the Bills.
ANALYSIS
Benton suffered an eye injury during the Steelers' preseason opener, but he was a starter for Saturday's matchup. He played 15 defensive snaps and was relatively productive during his time on the field, and he should be fully healthy moving forward.

Benton excelled during his final two collegiate seasons at Wisconsin and had an impressive Senior Bowl before being selected by the Steelers in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft. The 22-year-old racked up 4.5 sacks and 10 tackles for a loss with the Badgers during the 2022 campaign and should have an opportunity to compete for a starting role as a rookie.
