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.

Jalen Reagor News
Sunday, August 31, 6:52 PM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Reagor (undisclosed) has been placed on injured reserve, according to an announcement from the team. Reagor was cut by the Chargers as they trimmed their roster down to 53 players, but he was signed to the practice squad shortly after. By being placed on injured reserve, the former first-round pick will miss a minimum of four weeks. Reagor has struggled to produce through five NFL seasons, as he's never surpassed 400 yards or two touchdowns in a single year. He appeared in eight games with the Chargers in 2024, catching seven passes for 100 yards and zero scores. He'll remain off the fantasy radar even when he's healthy again.
