Good running backs don't lose carry battles to Samaje Perine. On the heels of last week's nine-carry, 10-yard thud against the Jaguars, I'm a little concerned. Brown is probably falling into the high-end RB2 ranks at this point.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Brown losing carries to Perine; downgraded to high-end RB2 range.

Brown lost the carry battle to Samaje Perine in Week 5, following last week's nine-carry, 10-yard performance against the Jaguars. Good running backs don't lose carry battles to Perine. While the Week 5 game against a team that has given up on fielding a real team right before a bye week was weird, the trend is concerning. Brown is probably falling into the high-end RB2 ranks at this point. Perine has always siphoned off just enough usage from Brown to be an interesting FLEX play at times, but this is an anti-endorsement of Brown.
