The Facts:
Facing what soon could be an excess of running backs, the Chiefs traded Bennett to the Buccaneers on Monday night. What the Chiefs received in return was immediately unclear. The Chiefs declined to confirm the deal, but Bennett said he was informed of the trade by officials of both teams. "It was a shock to me," Bennett said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Bennett played sparingly in recent games, and rookie Kolby Smith has been getting more snaps in practice recently, an indication he was about to encroach on at least some of Bennett's playing time. Priest Holmes is also eligible to come of the PUP this week. Meanwhile, the Buccaneers needs at the position are obvious with Carnell Williams done for the year and Michael Pittman out 6-8 weeks with an injured ankle.
