As if having a bullseye on their backs as the defending two-time champions weren’t challenging enough, Kansas City has also had their running back depth tested in ways few other NFL teams have. From two yards out, though, and with the endzone just a powerful A-gap push away, Samaje Perine played his role in keeping the Chiefs’ record unblemished, attaching himself to a crowded pile and using the momentum to propel a game-winning score. The recently-acquired veteran back turned five carries into 14 yards and a score, authoring the final statement in a 17-10 road victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 29, 2024.
