        Week 15 Overview

        Since Week 10, Perine has played 40% of Cincinnati's snaps and taken 42% of the backfield carries behind Chase Brown, but he's averaged a modest 5.1 PPR points per game. This week's matchup looks good. The Ravens have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing RBs. View Perine as a low-end Flex option in deeper PPR leagues.

        Samaje Perine Hurts Right Leg

        Samaje Perine Hurts Right Leg

        Bengals RB Samaje Perine hurt his right leg in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. He was in obvious pain and could put no weight on the leg. We'll update Perine's status when we know more. His absence turns RB Chase Brown back into a workhorse.

        Update: Perine returned on Cincinnati's next possession.

        Bengals RB Samaje Perine (ankle) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for Thursday night's game vs. the Ravens. Perine had worked his way into about one-third of the backfield work before going down with a high-ankle sprain in Week 9. RB Chase Brown has been excellent without Perine the last two weeks, though, totaling 206 yards on 5.6 yards per carry and catching eight of 12 targets. We're expecting Perine to steal some work from Brown going forward -- but not as much as he was before the ankle injury. Brown remains a strong Week 13 fantasy start.

        Bengals RB Samaje Perine (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Week 12. He didn’t practice all week and won’t play against the Patriots on Sunday. That’ll again mean an every-down role for Chase Brown, who is a RB1 in fantasy lineups.
