Malcolm Perry: Cut by Pats
Perry has been waived by the Patriots.
Perry was claimed by the Pats off waivers in 2021 after he was dropped by the Dolphins. He was then ultimatley let go again and subsequently signed to the Saints' practice squad. Following the season, he ended up coming back to New England on a reserve/future contract. However, the journeyman will now have to again look for a new opportunity.

Malcolm Perry: Joins New Orleans' practice squad
Perry (foot) signed with the Saints' practice squad Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
New England recently waived Perry off injured reserve, but the wideout/running back is healthy again and quickly found a new organization. The Saints are expected to quickly promote the 2020 seventh-round pick to the active roster, though it's unclear if Perry will be elevated prior to Thursday's game against the Bills.

Patriots' Malcolm Perry: Lands on IR
Perry (foot) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Perry was ruled out for Sunday's season opener due to a foot injury, and he'll be forced to miss at least the first three weeks of the season following his placement on IR. The 2020 seventh-rounder was claimed off waivers from the Dolphins in early September and will serve as depth at wide receiver once he's healthy.

Patriots' Malcolm Perry: Officially out for Week 1
The Patriots listed Perry (foot) as out ahead of Sunday's season opener, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.
As expected, Perry won't suit up Sunday after not practicing all week. The Patriots recently claimed Perry off waivers from the Dolphins, but his New England debut will have to be put on hold.

Patriots' Malcolm Perry: Heads to New England
The Patriots claimed Perry off waivers from the Dolphins on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Perry played quarterback in college for Navy, but he has primarily worked as a wide receiver/kick-return specialist during his time in the NFL. The move is interesting for New England, as it already had six wideouts on the initial 53-man roster, including a premier returner in Gunner Olszewski. The signing could make Perry the de facto emergency quarterback behind Mac Jones while Jarrett Stidham is sidelined with a back injury.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Scores first TD in finale
Perry turned his only target into a 25-yard touchdown during Week 17's 56-26 loss to the Bills.
Perry only played two offensive snaps during the Dolphins' season finale, but he made the most of his opportunities by connecting with Tua Tagovailoa for a TD pass with 2:47 remaining in the fourth quarter. Of course, by that point, the divisional tilt was well out of hand. The seventh-round selection appeared in nine contests as a rookie, during which span he secured nine of 13 targets for 92 yards and a score, primarily operating out of the slot when he did see the field. Perry also had three carries for five yards.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Gains four yards in win
Perry rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 22-12 win over the Patriots.
With DeVante Parker (hamstring) and Jakeem Grant (hamstring) out of the lineup, Perry played 10 snaps on offense, working behind Lynn Bowden, Mack Hollins and Isaiah Ford. The Dolphins could roll with a similar setup in Week 16 against the Raiders, but the return of Parker or Grant could push Perry further out of the rotation.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: One catch versus Chiefs
Perry caught one of two targets for five yards during Sunday's 33-27 loss to the Chiefs.
Perry saw expanded opportunities versus the Chiefs, as both DeVante Parker (leg) and Mike Gesicki (shoulder) were forced off the field, but he still didn't contribute much on offense. Instead, Lynn Bowden and Mack Hollins both stepped up to lead Miami's passing attack.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Sheds injury tag
Perry (chest) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Perry missed last weekend's win over the Bengals and was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday, but he handled unrestricted reps during Friday's session. The rookie seventh-round pick handled a season-high 78 percent of offensive snaps back in Week 11, so he could play a large role against the Chiefs. Of course, Perry only has seven catches for 62 yards on the season, so he's only on the fantasy radar as a fringe candidate in deep formats.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Absent from practice
Perry (chest) isn't practicing Wednesday, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Perry sat out Sunday's win over the Bengals due to a chest injury sustained Week 12. The wideout's absence from practice to begin Week 14 isn't a promising sign with regard to his chances of suiting up this weekend versus Chiefs, but he'll still have two more opportunities to increase his activity. If Perry sits out another contest, Antonio Callaway, Lynn Bowden and Mack Hollins could see increased opportunities on offense.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Won't play Sunday
Perry (chest) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
After exiting early in last week's win over the Jets with the chest injury, Perry failed to practice Wednesday before returning to work in a limited capacity Thursday and Friday. Ultimately, he didn't make enough progress for the Dolphins to sign off on him playing Week 13. With Perry out of the mix, Antonio Callaway and Mack Hollins could see more work alongside DeVante Parker and Jakeem Grant in three-wide sets. Rookie Lynn Bowden is the team's other active receiver, and he could also be an option to help replace Perry while also seeing a couple snaps as a Wildcat quarterback.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Draws questionable tag
Perry (chest) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Perry finished the week with back-to-back limited practices, a hint that he has a fair shot at suiting up versus Cincinnati. With Matt Breida (illness) on the COVID-19 list, and both Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) and DeAndre Washington (hamstring) doubtful to play, it's conceivable that Perry could get a handful of backfield opportunities Week 13. It seems more likely, though, that the Dolphins bring Myles Gaskin (knee) off IR on Saturday.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Upgrades to limited practice
Perry (chest) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Safid Deen of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Perry couldn't practice in any capacity Wednesday, so his ability to get back on the field in at least a limited capacity represents tangible progress. If the rookie seventh-round pick can attain full clearance in time for Sunday's game against the Bengals, he'll likely handle Miami's No. 3 receiver role.

Dolphins' Malcolm Perry: Can't practice Wednesday
Perry (chest) didn't practice Wednesday, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
Perry was forced out of last Sunday's win over the Jets due to the injury. If Perry can't go this weekend against the Bengals, Mack Hollins, Antonio Callaway and Lynn Bowden could all handle slightly increased roles.
