The Vikings released Benwikere on Tuesday, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere landed in Minnesota earlier in August and was ultimately unable to secure a spot on the roster. The journeyman cornerback will look to latch on elsewhere in the league.

Benwikere signed with the Vikings on Saturday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere is a journeyman's journeyman, as the Vikings mark his sixth team in as many seasons. Due to a variety of injury and suspension issues, the 27-year-old has a legit shot to earn a spot on the team's final 53-man roster, but still has some work cut out ahead of him.

Benwikere signed a contract with the Raiders on Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere was released by the Cardinals last week, and now finds a home in a Raiders' secondary which recently lost Leon Hall (back) for the season. The 2014 fifth-round pick showed some flashes during his time with Arizona, and could realistically see a notable role in Oakland's defense at some point in 2018.

Benwikere was released by the Cardinals on Monday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere started the season strong, but struggled with consistent tackling and coverage in recent weeks. Coach Steve Wilks said that "as the year has gone on you can see the inconsistency there," with reference to Benwikere's play. The 2014 fifth-round pick will be free to search for a role elsewhere in the league if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Benwikere recorded eight tackles during Sunday's loss to Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere continues to see a heightened role in the Cardinals secondary and his production has prospered as a result. Since Week 3, the fifth-year cornerback hasn't seen less than 58 snaps in a game and is currently averaging 5.5 tackles per game. Benwikere should continue to see quite a bit of attention playing opposite All-Pro corner Patrick Peterson.

Benwikere (neck) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere will suit up for the Cardinals' Week 5 matchup, but is unlikely to see a large defensive workload with Jamar Taylor (back) also active. Expect Benwikere to serve a depth role Sunday.

Benwikere (neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere saw 65 defensive snaps in Week 4 with Jamar Taylor (back) out. Taylor is already deemed unfit to play, so Benwikere could see a large workload again. If he can't go, expect Brandon Williams and Deatrick Nichols to both see increased time.

Benwikere signed a contract with Arizona on Friday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benewikere's signing with Arizona comes on the heels of the team losing starting cornerback Tramon Williams to Green Bay in free agency. After a promising sophomore campaign in 2015, in which he recorded 59 tackles and seven passes defensed, Benwikere has had a few disappointing years. In 16 games over the past two seasons, he's totaled just 12 tackles and five passes defensed. He's shown potential to be a contributor on defense but could be relegated to a backup role with Arizona.

The Bengals traded Benwikere to the Cowboys in exchange for a conditional draft pick, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Bengals were probably going to cut Benwikere anyway, so letting him go with the possibility of receiving a draft pick in return is a good move. The 2014 fifth-rounder will provide depth to an inexperienced Cowboys secondary.

Benwikere will sign a one-year deal with the Bengals, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Benwikere started the 2016 season as the Panthers' top cornerback, but quickly fell down the ranks and was eventually released by the team following a 300-yard performance from Julio Jones. He then had a brief stints with the Dolphins and Packers to end the season. Only 25, the cornerback could play his way into a starting position with the Bengals, who are currently facing a lot of uncertainty in the secondary. Dre Kirkpatrick is a pending free agent and Adam Jones' best days may be behind him. William Jackson III, the Bengals' 2016 first-round pick, spent the entire season on injured-reserve, leaving his status in question as well. Benwikere adds depth to the cornerback position, but will have to show signs of his former self in order to make it on the 53-man roster.
