Former Bengals RB Samaje Perine signs with AFC rival after final cuts
The Cincinnati Bengals won't be doing a reunion with veteran running back Samaje Perine before the 2024 season.
In fact, the Bengals will have to line up against him.
Perine, the former Bengals running back who left in free agency before the 2023 season, joined the Kansas City Chiefs after final roster cuts across the league.
It initially looked like the Bengals might be able to get Perine back early this week when the Denver Broncos made him part of their final cuts.
The fact the Bengals only kept three running backs on the initial 53-man roster helped the idea and on Wednesday, the Bengals cut one of those -- Trayveon Williams -- to make room for the team's only claim on the waiver wire.
Williams will be back, either on the practice squad or the active roster, pending more moves. But Perine won't -- unless we count the Week 2 encounter in Kansas City.
