Kelvin Benjamin had a bit of scrutiny surrounding him this offseason when Ron Rivera suggested that he may have been a bit overweight at OTAs. It all really began when Benjamin dealt with a hamstring injury. Fortunately for Panthers fans and the team, the second-year wide receiver looks poised and ready to make some noise in 2015, according to David Newton of ESPN.

“I'm looking to go full when we go into camp," Benjamin told ESPN. “I’m feeling good. I’m looking forward to it. I’m excited."

When speaking about his weight, he also explained that it's just fine.

“I’m not on the scale," he said. “But I’m playing weight."

So there you have it. No reason to sweat Panthers fans, because the No. 1 wide receiver for Cam Newton is feeling good and is ready to build on a strong rookie season.
