Bengals OC Dan Pitcher said the team will “continually assess how that touch share between [Perine] and Chase Brown should play out.” 2026-10-13 16:00:02 Pitcher suggested that when they run the ball more from shotgun — as they did last week against the Dolphins — Perine’s a better fit for those kinds of plays. The Bengals spent a lot of time this offseason working on an under center run game to get Brown more explosives, but that has gone for naught early on in the season. We may indeed see more Perine in Cincinnati’s running game after they return from the bye week, lowering Brown into the RB2 range. |

Chase Brown rushed 13 times for 39 yards and a fumble in the Bengals’ Week 5 win over the Dolphins, adding 3 receptions for 21 yards. 2026-10-11 17:00:02 Brown took a surprising backseat to Samaje Perine in the Bengals’ win over the Dolphins. He still led out-snapped Perine 38-to-33, but a red zone fumble hurt his fantasy production while splitting backfield touches 50/50. There were a few snaps where Brown lined up as a receiver with Perine in the backfield; the Bengals used both backs heavily. Brown previously dominated all sorts of touches for the Bengals backfield, so this is a new development. Game script certainly played a factor but Brown’s ceiling as an RB1 may be considerably lessened if Perine’s usage sticks. He is a fantasy RB2 with a Week 7 matchup against the Ravens on the horizon after a Week 6 bye. |

Chase Brown rushed nine times for 10 yards in the Bengals’ Week 4 loss to the Jaguars, adding 11 receptions for 71 yards. 2026-10-04 18:00:02 It was a big pass-catching day for Brown, who saw 11-of-54 total Bengals targets on the day. After Ja’Marr Chase (concussion) exited, Brown and Tee Higgins saw massive upticks in usage. Brown saw 57 backfield snaps, catching a series of checkdowns and wheel routes despite just 10 rushing yards on the day. He worked ahead of Samaje Perine on passing downs, a good sign for his fantasy production moving forward. We don’t expect Brown to consistently see this many targets but a high backfield share gives him a consistent fantasy floor. Brown is a fringe RB1 for Week 5 against the Dolphins. |

Chase Brown rushed 13 times for 61 yards in the Bengals’ Week 3 loss to the Steelers, and two receptions for eight additional yards. 2026-09-27 18:00:03 |

Chase Brown rushed 16 times for 56 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals’ Week 1 win over the Bucs, adding five receptions for 22 yards. 2026-09-13 18:00:03 It was neither an efficient nor prolific day for the Bengals’ lead back, but he found the end zone and out-touched No. 2 Samaje Perine 21-8. It was a full “as expected” day in the Bengals’ backfield. Brown will remain in the RB10-14 range for Week 2 against the Texans. That’s a tough defensive matchup, albeit one the similarly offensive-minded Bills just handled with ease. |
