Samaje Perine back on Washington coaches' good side
Washington rookie running back Samaje Perine has responded well in the week after his poor preseason opener, according to the running backs coach Randy Jordan.
What It Means:
Perine fumbled, dropped a pass, and struggled in pass protection in his first NFL game, but he apparently bounced back with a strong week of practice. Still, the coaching staff wants to see how he reacts in another game situation Saturday night. Perine remains well behind Rob Kelley, but he still has time to close the gap.
numberFire's algorithms expect Perine to rush 144.3 times for 517.6 yards and 4.51 touchdowns with 15.5 receptions for 113.5 yards and 0.61 touchdowns in 2017. He is the 42nd-ranked fantasy running back in our models while Kelley ranks 31st.
