Not sure why Kelvin Benjamin was benched in the 3rd quarter of Carolina’s game against the Raiders, and maybe he wasn’t either after cameras caught him throwing a full blown temper tantrum on the sideline.

The benching came at a critical time when the Panthers were moving the ball on their way to a touchdown to take a 25-24 lead in the game. We’ll keep our eye on this one.
****Update****
According to reports, Benjamin was taken out of the game due to health concerns regarding his shoulder. He would return and make his first touchdown catch since week 4.
