Keeanu Benton traded the wrestling mat for turf and hasn't looked back, and now he has his eyes set on making it to the NFL and taking down Aaron Rodgers.
Benton enjoyed a four-year career at Wisconsin, earning attention from Big Ten coaches in 2021 as he was named second-team all conference as the anchor of the nation’s top rushing defence. He continued his fine form in 2022 and is expected to be selected within the first three rounds of the 2023 NFL Draft next week.
Benton followed the New Orleans Saints when he was younger, although he also followed the Bears as he lived in Chicago. While he has no preference over a destination, Benton is looking forward to taking on and competing with players he has followed for years.
