Let go by Pittsburgh
The Steelers cut Perine from the practice squad Tuesday. Perine caught on with the Steelers' practice squad Oct. 1 after being let go by the Packers on Sept. 10. The 2020 fourth-round pick will explore his options and look to sign with a team in need of running back depth. Perine appeared in five regular-season games for the Chiefs in 2023, accumulating 22 carries for 77 yards and three catches (on five targets) for 33 yards over that span.
Headed to Pittsburgh
The Steelers signed Perine to the practice squad Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Perine inked a one-year deal with the Steelers in May, but he was unable to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He opted to sign with the Packers' practice squad but was let go by Green Bay on Sept. 10. Now in Pittsburgh, Perine adds depth to the Steelers' backfield, and he could be called up for Week 5 against the Cowboys if one or both of Jaylen Warren (knee) or Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) cannot play.
Loses his spot
Perine was cut from the Packers' practice squad Tuesday. Perine signed with Green Bay's practice squad Aug. 30 after he was waived by the Steelers during roster cuts. The Florida product has seen action with the Jets in the past and most recently with the Chiefs for five regular-season games in 2023, where he had 77 yards on 22 carries and three receptions for 33 yards.
Joins Packers' practice squad
Perine signed to Green Bay's practice squad Friday. Perine signed a contract with Pittsburgh in May and rushed 16 times for 46 yards and a touchdown in the preseason, adding one reception for four yards. He was released Tuesday and will now have a chance to earn his way back to the NFL roster with the Packers' practice squad. Perine played in five regular-season games with Kansas City last year, rushing 22 times for 77 yards while catching three of five targets for 33 yards.
Doesn't make roster cut
Perine was released by the Steelers on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Perine appeared in five regular-season games for the Chiefs in 2023, and he played exclusively on special teams in Kansas City's first three playoff games. After being waived May 17, he caught on with the Steelers six days later to compete for the No. 3 running back job behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren (hamstring). Perine wasn't able to show much during his three preseason outings, during which he accrued 16 carries for 46 yards and one touchdown while adding one catch on three targets for four yards. Given his experience on special teams, Perine should be able to catch on with another team -- either on the roster or practice squad -- at some point during the 2024 season.
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.
