From the episode

Samaj Perine got involved. He's been kind of annoyingly involved here to the point that Chase Brown only has a 74% share of the running back touches so far for the Cincinnati Bengals.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Perine's increased involvement after Brown's fumble limits upside; 74% touch share for Brown is concerning.

Perine has been annoyingly involved in the Bengals backfield, limiting Chase Brown's opportunity. Through five weeks, Brown has only a 74% share of running back touches. Perine's involvement increased significantly after Brown's Week 5 fumble, jumping to 73% of remaining snaps vs. Brown's 48%, as the Bengals used Perine in slot and backfield roles. Before the fumble, Perine had been less involved (17% snaps Week 1-3, 29% Week 4), but the fumble triggered a clear shift in usage.
