Samaje Perine vs. Titans — Favorable Home Game Script but Limited Standalone Touches
Operating behind Chase Brown in Cincinnati's backfield, Samaje Perine continues to fill a complementary rotational role. While he has found the end zone in two of his past three appearances, his standalone workload remains narrow after logging just four carries in his last game.
The Bengals are heavy home favorites against a 1-6 Titans squad, which could offer positive game script and late clock-killing work. Even so, we project Perine for roughly 6 carries, 24 rushing yards, and one reception (7.6 fantasy points). Started in just 6% of leagues, he remains a touchdown-dependent deep-league play rather than a viable standard starter.

Chig Okonkwo vs. Philadelphia — Opportunity Knocks in Shorthanded Passing Attack
Operating as Washington's primary tight end, Okonkwo enters Week 8 fully healthy after shaking off early-season hamstring troubles. With veteran wideout Terry McLaurin recently placed on injured reserve, the Commanders need secondary targets to step up behind Stefon Diggs. Okonkwo's chemistry with Jayden Daniels was evident in his last game, catching all seven targets for 69 yards.
Our weekly projection tabs Okonkwo for approximately 3.6 receptions and 37 yards (8.3 fantasy points). Fantasy managers have responded by driving his roster rate up past 30% this week. Although the 40.5-point game total indicates a lower-scoring affair, his growing target share cements him as a high-floor streaming option with low-end TE1 upside.
