Utah’s streak of 22 seasons with an interception returned for a touchdown is the longest in college football.

Bennee is one of three Utah players to transition from just defense to both sides of the ball in 2025.

He played in 12 games last season with most of his snaps on special teams. He did get some looks on defense at safety, finishing his first college year with six tackles.

Bennee, Smith Snowden, and Lander Barton all got receiving looks in week one and are expected to continue to play on both ends throughout this season.
