  • Perine rushed seven times for 25 yards and one touchdown in the Bengals' 45-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. He added two catches for 16 yards on three targets. Since coming back from an injury in Week 13, Perine has recorded 41 carries across four games, significantly eating into Chase Brown's workload. Brown, however, wasn't affected much against Miami, scoring a trio of touchdowns Sunday. While Brown is healthy, Perine has minimal fantasy appeal outside of the deepest of fantasy leagues.

  • Perine (ankle) returned from injury in the Bengals' final offensive series during Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Ravens. He finished the game with 14 carries for 42 yards and one catch for one yard on his only target. Frequently, players with ankle injuries experience a decent amount of swelling subsequent to suffering the injury, so we'll track Perine's status heading into practice next week. Perine and Chase Brown split carries almost evenly Sunday, though Brown was far more involved in the passing game.

  • Perine left with a right ankle injury in the fourth quarter Sunday against the Ravens. His return is questionable. Perine went down in a heap while trying to convert a third-down run. Prior to the injury, he had 10 carries for 34 yards, along with a catch for one yard.

  • Chase Brown remains the lead running back for the Bengals, but Perine will clearly have a role in this backfield. And he could be a potential flex option in deeper leagues heading into Week 15 against Baltimore. Perine returned from a two-game absence with an ankle injury in Week 13 against the Ravens and had 14 carries for 39 yards and two catches for 15 yards on two targets. He then had six carries for 31 yards and one catch for 7 yards on one target in Week 14 at Buffalo. Perine would also be at least a flex option if Brown were to miss any time. He's worth adding for 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

  • Perine rushed six times for 31 yards and caught his only target for seven yards in Sunday's Week 14 loss to Buffalo. He also returned two kickoffs for 49 yards. As usual, Chase Brown worked as Cincinnati's clear lead back, but he managed just 23 yards on 12 carries, albeit with a touchdown on the ground and another through the air. Perine was much more efficient with 31 yards on just six carries, though he didn't get into the end zone. Perine has posted a hearty 5.2 YPC on the campaign, but he's averaged a modest 24.4 rushing yards per contest as Brown's backup.
