NEW ORLEANS — Samaje Perine is not the kind of guy who has to go around wearing a name tag. He has a beard that could double as an Eagle’s nest. And he’s easy to recognize on the field with legs that should come with mudflaps.
Broncos fans became acquainted with Perine in 2023 as the veteran running back who turned into a favorite third-down target and a two-minute weapon for Russell Wilson. He figured he could fill a similar role for Bo Nix, who piqued his interest in OTAs.
