Kelvin Benjamin (born February 5, 1991) is an American football wide receiver who is currently a free agent.
He played college football at Florida State and was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft.
He has also played for the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs.
After totaling over 1,000 receiving yards in his rookie season, Benjamin missed his sophomore year with a torn ACL.
He returned in 2016 and caught 941 yards and seven touchdowns.
Midway through 2017, Benjamin was traded to the Bills and appeared in six games with the team.
With his play continuing to decline and his effort being called into question by coaches and the media, the team released Benjamin during the 2018 season.
He subsequently signed with the Chiefs, but made just two catches in three regular season games and did not appear in the team's playoff run.
