Christian Benford

Christian Benford (concussion) left the AFC Championship Game against Kansas City and was ruled out.

Benford, active off the questionable line despite a brain injury, was hit in the helmet by a Bills defender right after Tony Romo explained how important it was that Benford was playing. He was carted off in the front seat of a golf cart after looking woozy. It was commendable for him to try to play in this game for his team, but it was tough to watch this happen. Kaair Elam replaced Benford at cornerback.
