• Rams' Bryce Perkins: Struggles in first NFL start

  11/28/2022 • By RotoWire

  Perkins completed 13 of 23 passes for 100 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions during Sunday's 26-10 loss to Kansas City. He added 44 rushing yards on nine carries. Making the first start of his NFL career, Perkins struggled to move the ball through the air but did manage to lead the Rams in rushing yards. His first career TD pass went to Van Jefferson in the fourth quarter, but Los Angeles was down 20-3 at the time. With Allen Robinson (foot) now out for the year and Cooper Kupp (ankle) on IR as well, Perkins won't have much help even if he does get another start in Week 13 against the Seahawks in place of Matthew Stafford (neck).

• Rams' Bryce Perkins: Week 12 Waiver Priority List

  11/23/2022 • By Jamey Eisenberg

  With Matthew Stafford in the concussion protocol for the second time since Week 9 and John Wolford (neck) also hurt, Perkins could be the starter for the Rams in Week 12 at the Chiefs. That makes him someone to add in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues for at least 5 percent of your remaining FAB. Perkins replaced Stafford in the third quarter of Week 11 at New Orleans and was 5-of-10 passing for 64 yards and ran five times for 39 yards. He has limited weapons and a bad offensive line, but his rushing ability could be attractive in deeper leagues. Keep an eye on the health for Stafford and Walford, but Perkins could be a low-end starter in Superflex and two-quarterback formats in Week 12.

• Rams' Bryce Perkins: Serviceable in emergency duty

  11/21/2022 • By RotoWire

  Perkins took over for Matthew Stafford (head) with 5:47 remaining in the third quarter of Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Saints and completed five of 10 passes for 64 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and ran five times for 39 yards. Considering he had all of one NFL pass attempt under his belt prior to Sunday, Perkins handled himself fairly well after being thrust into action. The Virginia product could be in line to serve as no less than the No. 2 quarterback in Week 12 against the Chiefs if either Stafford or John Wolford (neck) are unable to suit up.

• Rams' Bryce Perkins: Minimal stats in first NFL game

  11/14/2022 • By RotoWire

  Perkins completed one pass for minus-3 yards and rushed three times for four yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Cardinals. Sunday marked the first time in Perkins' three years with the Rams that he was able to take the field outside of the preseason, but his five snaps on offense resulted in a disappointing one total yard of offense. John Wolford didn't fare much better in the lead role, as he only accumulated 147 passing yards before padding his stats on the final drive in garbage time. Matthew Stafford will have to clear the concussion protocol in order to return for Week 11's showdown with the Saints, but neither Wolford nor Perkins would be inspiring choices for fantasy purposes if Stafford were unable to play.

• Rams' Bryce Perkins: Efficient in loss

  08/20/2022 • By RotoWire

  Perkins completed 11 of 13 passes for 123 yards in Friday's 24-20 preseason loss against the Texans. He also rushed two times for one yard. After a first half in which John Wolford suffered a total of five sacks, Perkins was sacked just once in the second half. Perkins' connection with breakout wide receiver Lance McCutcheon was on full display again, with Perkins connecting on all three of his pass attempts to the dynamic playmaker for 45 yards. McCutcheon's inability to get out of bounds on the final snap of the game cost Perkins the opportunity to go for a game-winning touchdown, but another quality half of action has Perkins firmly in the conversation for the backup job to Matthew Stafford going into the final preseason game against the Bengals next Saturday.
