Joe Reedy of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports Bengals running back Cedric Benson was guarded in his first comments since Johnson joined the team. He said that he realizes that football can be more of a business than a game.
Quote:
"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, who is sixth in the league in rushing with 859 yards, said he first felt pain late in the Nov. 8 win over Baltimore. He did not play the last three quarters of Sunday's win over Pittsburgh and would not put a percentage on the likelihood of facing the Raiders.
