Kelvin Benjamin had a tremendous rookie season with the Carolina Panthers and is one of the NFC South’s best young receivers heading forward. Benjamin eclipsed the 1,000 yard mark as a rookie and hauled in nine touchdowns.

If you live in the south and watch college football, then you knew how good Benjamin was going to be in the NFL after watching him tear it up at Florida State. Benjamin now has a home in Carolina and is Cam Newtons’ top target and will continue to shred defenses for years to come.
