Bengals' Benson guarded about Johnson's arrival

cbenson.JPGThe Cincinnati Enquirer reports: Bengals running back Cedric Benson was guarded in his first comments since newly acquired Larry Johnson joined the team.

"I didn't know I was supposed to be jumping out of my seat or anything. I really have no feelings about it," Benson said. "They made a move they felt they needed to do, and that's fine with me. It's not going to affect me in any kind of way. Whatever happens from here on, I can guarantee you I'll definitely be making the best of it.

"In most cases you hold your fate in your own hands. I'm not letting up in any aspect of what I'm doing. I would imagine that I would continue to be the first guy, and if not, I'll make it that way."

Benson, the former Bears first-round pick who is sixth in the league in rushing with 859 yards, is recovering from a hip injury and his status in uncertain for the Bengals' game this Sunday at Oakland.

I don't see any reason for Cedric to worry just like I am sure the Chiefs aren't too worried about his threat to TRAMPLE the Chiefs since this threat is coming from a running back that is better at running his mouth than running the ball. Good riddance LJ!!!
