Arizona Cardinals RB Trey Benson will not make return in Week 12 vs. Jaguars

There will no return to the field for Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson this week. Designated to return on Wednesday from injured reserve and able to practice for the first time since he suffered a knee injury in Week 4, Benson was ruled out of Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars at State Farm Stadium in Week 12.

Benson was a limited participant in practice this week all three days.

With Emari Demercado ruled out with an ankle injury this week, the Cardinals signed running back Jermar Jefferson from the practice squad to the active roster. The running back rotation on Sunday will be Bam Knight, Michael Carter and Jefferson.

What will remain to be seen is who will fill the third-down and passing-down role that Demercado plays so well.

In four games this season before his injury, Benson had 160 rushing yards on 5.5 yards per attempt and six receptions for 59 yards.
