Whipped Cream Difficulties

Cedric Benson, former UT and NFL player, was reportedly killed in a motorcycle accident last night.

Benson, a running back who played for the Longhorns from 2001 to 2004, accumulated the second-most rushing yards in program history and topped 1,000 yards in each of his four seasons. He captured the Doak Walker Award as the nation’s top running back in his senior season in 2004. The next year, the Chicago Bears took him No. 4 overall in the NFL draft. Benson went on to play eight seasons in the league and last played in 2012 with the Green Bay Packers.

He was 36. Reports are that a passenger on his motorcycle was also killed.
