Player Update: Martellus Bennett, TE

Source: RotoTimes.com

The Cowboys are worried about tight end Martellus Bennett's lack of maturity and attitude, Pro Football Weekly reports. He has the physical skill, but the rooke tight end failed to bond with starter Jason Witten, who tried to help him in 2008.

Our View: There were times throughout the 2008 season when reports suggested the Cowboys wanted to get Bennett more involved in the offense, so they clearly like his skills. It will be tough for him to have a bigger role in 2009 unless Jerry Jones successfully lobbies for the NFL to allow his offense to use two balls. They already don't have enough to go around - just ask Terrell Owens and Roy Williams.
