   Perine rushed three times for seven yards in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Jaguars.

   Chase Brown carried the ball nine times for just 10 yards, and the Bengals rushed 15 times for just 23 yards as a team, with Joe Burrow scoring a rushing touchdown. Perine has rushed 13 times for 42 yards (3.2 YPC) through four games. He would need an injury to Brown to gain any fantasy relevance.

   Perine turned three carries into nine yards and caught one pass on three targets for five yards during the Bengals' 30-27 loss to the Steelers on Sunday. He also returned one kickoff for 26 yards.

   Perine saw most of his offensive output in the first half and was limited to only one carry for zero gain in the second. His 18 offensive snaps were well behind Chase Brown's 40, and Perine figures to be limited to a rotational role in the Bengals' backfield this season unless Brown were to miss time. The Bengals will head home to host the Jaguars in Week 4.

   Perine logged two carries for six yards and hauled in his lone target for 16 yards during the Bengals' 20-6 win over the Texans on Sunday.

   Perine's three touches were well behind starter Chase Brown's 25, with the former playing 24 of 60 offensive snaps (40.0 percent). Perine's 16-yard catch midway through the third quarter converted a third-and-7 for the Bengals and led to an 18-yard touchdown pass from Joe Burrow to Ja'Marr Chase five plays later. Perine is up to 72 scrimmage yards through two regular-season games and is firmly entrenched as the Bengals' RB2 behind Brown. Up next is a Week 3 AFC North tilt against the Steelers, whose defense gave up 119 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries between TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson in a Week 2 loss to the Patriots.

   Perine (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Houston.

   Perine missed practice Thursday and Friday, but he's apparently made enough progress with his illness to convince the team that he'll be fine to play. He took five carries for 20 yards and three catches for 30 yards in a 33-27 win over Tampa Bay in Week 1.

   Perine (knee) was listed as a non-participant at the Bengals' practice Thursday.

   Perine was added to the injury report with an apparent knee injury after opening the week without a listed practice status Wednesday. The running back turned five carries into 20 yards and reeled in all three of his targets for 30 yards during the team's 33-27 win over the Buccaneers in Week 1, but he may have suffered a knee injury at some point during the contest. Perine will have another chance to practice Friday, but if he can't go Sunday against Houston, Tahj Brooks would stand to operate as the team's primary backup option behind Chase Brown in Cincinnati's backfield.
