Samaje Perine Ruled Out for Week 11

Friday, November 14, 7:33 PM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine (ankle) didn't practice at all this week and has officially been ruled out for the Week 11 contest on Sunday against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Perine is still banged up coming out of the team's bye, and his next chance to return will come in Week 12 against the New England Patriots. Chase Browns will continue to see most of the backfield touches for the Bengals this weekend, with rookie Tahj Brooks set to serve in the RB2 role. If Cincy wants more depth behind those two, they can elevate one of Gary Brightwell or Kendall Milton from their practice squad for Sunday's game. The 30-year-old Perine is merely a deep-league handcuff in point-per-reception formats if you have Brown rostered. He has 32 carries for 198 yards and a touchdown while adding seven catches for 30 yards in his nine games played in 2025.
