La'Mical Perine Held In Check In Week 8
4 years agoNew York Jets running back La'Mical Perine continues to split up the carries with veteran Frank Gore in the backfield. Honestly, it's unclear why head coach Adam Gase continues to use Gore as the lead back on a winless football team. Perine rushed eight times for 27 yards and caught two receptions for six yards in the Week 8 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. There could be some fantasy value for Perine if Gase would actually let him be the lead back. However, Gase has no clue what he's doing and the New England Patriots aren't a good matchup for Perine anyway.
