This hub collects snap counts, routes run, goals per route (TPRR), carry share, red zone usage, alignment, ADOT, time to throw, situational splits, fantasy points and more so you can quickly spot role changes and take action before your competition does. Use it for waiver decisions, buy-low/sell-high trades, rest-of-season (ROS) rankings context, dynasty saves, DFS builds, and prop research.
Below you will find the top 10 most crucial usage and production points. If you want more details on these top 10 players, or any other quarterback, running back, wide receiver or tight end in the league, head straight to the interactive tool below. It is the most comprehensive fantasy tool that provides information about how a player is used, his performance and how the defense responds. You can view by player, team or position, sort each column, filter by week and snaps, and switch between totals and percentages to see the full picture of everything you’re looking for. All information can also be found in the usual summary articles.
1. Samaje Perine leads the Cincinnati Bengals in rushing yards
Perine’s role in the offense has grown in recent weeks, leading to his best rushing performance since 2022.
The Bengals’ rotation at running back was very predictable early in the season. Chase Brown played 88.5% of Cincinnati’s snaps in normal early-down situations in Weeks 1, 2 and 4, ignoring Week 3 when Perine was injured. Perine played 82.6% of third-down snaps during the same period. In Weeks 5 and 6, Perine played almost as many snaps as Brown. This was largely due to the team playing from behind, but Brown’s numbers on early downs dropped to 82.6% during that time.
Last week the Bengals had much more success running the ball compared to other recent weeks. Brown ran the ball 11 times for 108 yards, while Perine ran seven times for 31 yards. Perine’s playing time increased even more on early downs. However, many of those snaps occurred after Brown had a long run and needed a break. This week, Perine played 29.3% of early-down snaps, significantly more than any other game this season. Brown was still the leader on early downs and had a great game with 12 carries for 73 yards and a touchdown, in addition to three receptions for 32 yards and another score. Perine ran nine times for 94 yards and a touchdown.
