Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
Lean, thin athlete with a lot of room to add mass. Loose athlete who can create in space when the play breaks down. Good arm strength, but his quick release is what stands out to me and squeezes the most out of his arm strength. Benson has started 4 years at a high level of ball, and it’s hard to see him not getting a shot in college.

Read EvaluationConnor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
Benson came out of nowhere this fall and led Newton to a highly successful 2023 season. Benson is raw and still growing into his 6’1 frame. However, he was extremely efficient this fall, taking care of the ball and making play after play. He has an elastic, almost sidearm style release and fires off a firm base. He is not afraid to launch the deep ball, and when he does, he puts good touch on the ball and gives his receivers a better chance of making a play. Benson will be an interesting eval over his next two years on varsity.
