Predicting Perriman will return from his knee injury during training camp is rather bold considering his injury history, and ESPN’s Jamison Hensley knows fans will have a hard time buying it.
“Cue the eye roll now,” Hensley wrote after making his projection.
Perriman, a 2015 first-round draft pick, was initially expected to miss only a couple days after a knee injury last year during training camp, but ended up missing the entire season. That’s why nobody’s holding their breath for a Week 1 debut this year. But that doesn’t mean it absolutely can’t happen.
“[He] was expected to miss only eight weeks after partially spraining his ACL this offseason,” Hensley wrote.
