Benn, Doss looking to escape underwhelming labels

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Labels are tough to overcome in the NFL.

Whether you're considered "injury prone" or "just a returner" or a "head case," it's an uphill battle to shed the unwanted label as a professional athlete.

Jacksonville Jaguars veteran receivers Tandon Doss and Arrelious Benn are two players looking to avoid the labels brought on from their prior experiences in the NFL.

Benn has missed two-straight seasons due to multiple injuries, including an ACL tear in 2013. His entire two-year stint with the Philadelphia Eagles has nothing to show for it but he is looking to make the most of his opportunity with the Jaguars.
