Perine's 4.1 yards per carry shows supplemental value, but limited volume and no explosive plays cap upside.

Samaje Perine has been somewhat effective in a supplemental role with 4.1 yards per carry, but his overall production remains limited. He had a rough stretch in Weeks 2-4 with eight carries for 22 yards (2.8 yards per carry), zero touchdowns, and a long run of just five yards. His carry share has increased as Chase Brown's has declined, eating into Brown's workload. Perine has caught seven passes for 61 yards on the season. The longest run by either Perine or Brown has been 15 yards this season, highlighting a lack of explosive run plays in Cincinnati's offense.
