Usage collapsed with Perine's return; snap share fell to 60%, carries to 45% share.
Chase Brown's box score from Week 13 is inflated due to the Bengals running 80 plays (caused by turnovers and unusual game flow). His actual snap share, route participation, and carry share all declined significantly with Samaje Perine's return: snap share dropped from 96/82/89 to 60%, route participation fell from 86/83/74 to 56%, and carry share declined from 73/82/83 to 45%. If the Bengals run a normal 65-play game, his 20 touches could realistically become 14-16 touches. Brown ranks RB42 in success rate (39%), RB21 in breakaway yards per game, RB27 in rush yards over expected; has been a much better fantasy player than real-life player. With Perine returning at 40% snaps and 42% carries, Brown will be treated as a 1A back in a committee rather than a workhorse, limiting upside to efficiency-driven matchup plays rather than volume-based production.
