Perine rushed four times for 10 yards while failing to secure his lone target during Friday's 20-12 preseason loss to the Texans. Perine signed a one-year contract with the Steelers in May, but he wasn't particularly efficient during Friday's preseason opener. It's unclear whether he'll be able to land a spot on the team's 53-man roster this year, but even if he's included on the active roster, he's unlikely to see much regular-season work since the Steelers also have Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson.

La’Mical Perine Latest News
Racks up 10 yards Friday
Perine rushed four times for 10 yards while failing to secure his lone target during Friday's 20-12 preseason loss to the Texans. Perine signed a one-year contract with the Steelers in May, but he wasn't particularly efficient during Friday's preseason opener. It's unclear whether he'll be able to land a spot on the team's 53-man roster this year, but even if he's included on the active roster, he's unlikely to see much regular-season work since the Steelers also have Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson.
Inks deal with Pittsburgh
Perine and the Steelers agreed on a one-year contract Thursday. Perine was waived by Kansas City on Friday and it took less than a week for him to find a new home in Pittsburgh. The running back compiled 77 rushing yards on 22 carries while also recording three catches for 33 yards over five games with Kansas City in 2023. He'll likely operate as an extreme depth option for the Steelers behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren if he secures an active roster spot in 2024.
Waived by KC
Perine was waived by the Chiefs on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Kansas City is parting ways with Perine after he rushed for 77 yards on 22 carries while adding three catches for 33 yards in 2023. The 2020 fourth-round draft pick of the Jets spent his first two seasons in New York. Perine will look to latch on with another team prior to training camp.
