The Chiefs signed Perine to their 53-man roster Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The move comes with Jerick McKinnon being placed on the Chiefs' injured reserve list with a groin injury. Perine joined the team's practice squad Aug. 30 and has been elevated by the team twice this year. He'll take over as the RB3 in the Chiefs' backfield behind Isiah Pacheco and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
