Samaje Perine News
Saturday, February 21, 10:39 AM
Across 15 games in 2025, Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine recorded 469 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 101 touches. The veteran back has established himself as a quality pass-blocker and capable RB2 over the course of his nine-year NFL career. That's the role Perine played alongside Bengals RB1 Chase Brown in 2025, and with both backs under contract for 2026, Cincinnati appears likely to run it back next season. Without an injury to Brown, Perine carries limited fantasy upside. Even if Brown were to miss time, it's possible the Bengals would look to bring in a more dynamic rusher and keep Perine in a secondary role. While Perine has recorded at least 400 scrimmage yards in five straight seasons, he hasn't topped the 700-yard mark since his rookie year in 2017 and has logged just 19 touchdowns in 125 career NFL games. Perine's fantasy ceiling is uninspiring as he hits the late stages of his career.

Isaiah Davis News
Wednesday, April 1, 8:04 PM
New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis could have trouble becoming relevant in fantasy football going forward. With Breece Hall still in New York and Braelon Allen (knee) coming back from injury, Davis finds himself buried at No. 3 on the depth chart, at best. He could slip even further down the pecking order if the Jets make an additional signing or select a rookie running back in this month's NFL Draft. Davis, 24, has been in the league for two years, and despite having plenty of opportunities to touch the football, he has never finished higher than RB59 in a single season. It's somewhat of a shame, as Davis has averaged 5.62 yards per carry in the NFL, and he caught 21 passes in 2025. We know he's talented, but the path to a fantasy-relevant role just isn't very promising. He can be left on waivers in many dynasty leagues.
