Samaje Perine at Miami — Reserve Role Keeps Fantasy Ceiling Low
Perine continues to operate as the clear secondary option behind Chase Brown in the Bengals' backfield. Across his last two outings, he has logged just six total rush attempts and four targets, demonstrating that his weekly involvement remains tightly capped in this offense.
Even with Cincinnati favored on the road against a winless Miami squad, Perine offers virtually no standalone value while seeing minimal touches. Our weekly projection expects around 4.9 fantasy points on roughly four carries and one to two catches, meaning fantasy managers should leave him on benches as purely an insurance stash.
