Samaje Perine News
Monday, November 9, 11:10 AM
Across eight games in 2026, Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine has recorded 249 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 54 touches. The 31-year-old has spent most of the season to this point in a reserve role behind Bengals RB1 Chase Brown. However, Brown has struggled so far in 2026, recording career lows in both yards per carry (3.9) and yards per touch (4.3). In Cincinnati's Week 9 win over the Atlanta Falcons, the team split touches evenly between Perine (11) and Brown (12). If that trend continues, Perine could move into flex territory for fantasy managers as a consistent piece in one of the NFL's most potent offenses. In deeper leagues, Perine could be worth targeting on the waiver wire heading into Week 10.

Nick Chubb News
Thursday, September 24, 2:39 PM
Free-agent veteran running back Nick Chubb is returning to Cleveland to sign a one-day contract to retire as a member of the Browns, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Chubb previously announced his retirement from the NFL at the end of August after spending seven of his eight seasons in the league in Cleveland. The 30-year-old was drafted in the second round (35th overall) by the Browns in 2018 from Georgia. He had a run of four straight years in which he made the Pro Bowl from 2019 to 2022, a stretch that included four straight 1,000-yard seasons with 40 rushing touchdowns and two receiving scores in 59 starts. Everything changed in 2023, though, when Chubb tore his ACL, MCL, and meniscus in his knee. He was never the same after that, carrying the ball 224 times for 838 yards and six touchdowns in 23 games over the last two seasons with the Browns and Houston Texans. Chubb will finish his NFL career with 7,349 rushing yards and 54 touchdowns on 1,462 carries (5.0 yards per carry) in 100 regular-season games played. He added 141 catches for 1,109 yards and another five scores through the air.
