  • Texans' Denzel Perryman: Returns to practice Tuesday

    Perryman (shoulder) participated Tuesday at OTAs, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Perryman wasn't practicing to start OTAs while rehabbing from offseason labrum surgery, but he appears to be in the final stages of his recovery and should be good to go for training camp. The veteran linebacker recorded 237 tackles in 27 games across two seasons with Las Vegas before signing a one-year deal with Houston this offseason.

  • Texans' Denzel Perryman: Recovering from labrum surgery

    Perryman is recovering from offseason labrum surgery and didn't practice Tuesday at OTAs, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Perryman recorded 237 tackles over 27 games in two seasons with Las Vegas, but he suffered a season-ending shoulder injury in Week 16 last year. He agreed to a one-year deal with the Texans this offseason and presumably had to pass a physical, but he remains sidelined to start Houston's offseason program. It's unclear when he'll be able to play again, but whenever he's healthy, the veteran linebacker figures to compete for a sizable role in the Texans' defense.

  • Texans' Denzel Perryman: Lands with Houston

    Perryman agreed to a one-year contract with the Texans on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Perryman spent the last two seasons with the Raiders and will now make the move to Houston. He finished the 2022 campaign with 83 tackles (54 solo), one sack, two pass breakups and two interceptions in 12 contests. Perryman should play a significant role within the Houston defense in 2023 now that he has had time to recover from a dislocated shoulder he suffered late in the past season.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Heads to IR

    Las Vegas placed Perryman (shoulder) on injured reserve Wednesday. Perryman was expected to miss the final two games of the regular season after dislocating his shoulder during last week's loss to Pittsburgh, so his move to IR was simply transactional. The veteran linebacker will end the season with 83 tackles, two interceptions and one sack across 12 appearances.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Will be shut down

    Perryman (shoulder) won't play during the final two games of the regular season, Jordan Schultz of TheScore.com reports. Perryman dislocated his shoulder in Saturday's loss to Pittsburgh, prompting an early end to his campaign. The linebacker couldn't come close to matching the career-best mark of 154 tackles he posted last season, but he was still leading Las Vegas with 83 stops prior to being shut down. Perryman's starting role could be assumed by Curtis Bolton, who has yet to log a defensive snap in the NFL. Meanwhile, it's likely the Raiders will place Perryman on IR in the coming days.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Likely out for season

    Perryman isn't expected to return for the remainder of the season after dislocating his shoulder in Saturday's 13-10 loss to the Steelers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Perryman is now anticipated to miss the rest of the season due to the dislocated shoulder he sustained in Week 16 against Pittsburgh. If that's indeed the case, then the veteran linebacker will finish the 2022 campaign with 83 tackles, one sack and two interceptions across 12 games. Curtis Bolton should be in store for additional defensive snaps should Perryman eventually miss time.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Leaves with shoulder injury

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Logs nine tackles against Patriots

    Perryman tallied nine tackles (eight solo) in Las Vegas' Week 15 30-24 victory versus New England. Perryman continues to post solid but unspectacular tackle numbers, recording between six and 10 stops in each of the nine games in which he has played since Week 5. While the consistency is nice, the veteran linebacker hasn't come close to the career-best numbers he posted last season, when he finished third in the NFL with a career-high 154 stops. Perryman is trending up, however, as he has played on 100 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps over the past two weeks after failing to do so in any of the team's first 12 contests this season.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Paces team in stops, interceptions

    Perryman recorded nine tackles (four solo) and one interception during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks. Perryman snagged his first interception since Week 13 of the 2019-20 campaign, while he also logged a team-high nine tackles in the Raiders' Week 12 victory in Seattle. The veteran will look to continue being an integral part of Las Vegas' defensive unit in this weekend's divisional matchup versus the Chargers.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Six stops Week 11

    Perryman recorded six tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 22-16 overtime victory versus the Broncos. Perryman played 71 percent of Las Vegas' defensive snaps after sitting out last week's loss to Indianapolis due to a lingering hip injury. The 29-year-old also paced the Raiders' linebackers in stops, tying defensive end Maxx Crosby for the team's second-most tackles against Denver. Perryman has now recorded 24 tackles while playing 140 defensive snaps over his past three games, and he should continue to slot in as one of his team's top tacklers while Divine Deablo (forearm) remains out on IR.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Will suit up Sunday

    Perryman (hip) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Broncos. Perryman was ruled inactive with a hip injury ahead of last week's loss to the Colts, leaving him questionable to play Week 11. However, the issue appears to have improved after a week off, and the middle linebacker should reprise his starting role between Jayon Brown and Luke Masterson on Sunday.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Chance to play Week 11

    Perryman (hip) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Denver, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Perryman was held out of the team's Week 10 loss to the Colts after being listed as questionable due to a hip injury, but it appears he has a better shot of suiting up in Week 11 after logging a full practice Friday. In eight appearances, the veteran linebacker has totaled 40 stops and one sack across 216 defensive snaps.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Misses practice with hip/ribs issue

    Perryman (hip/ribs) didn't practice Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Perryman played on 76 percent of the Raiders' defensive snaps Sunday versus Jacksonville, but he apparently hurt his hip and ribs at some point during the loss. The veteran linebacker has been an important cog for Las Vegas of late, notching at least six tackles in each of his past four contests. As such, it would be a big loss for Las Vegas if Perryman is forced to miss any time.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Logs a sack in Week 5

    Perryman recorded eight tackles (six solo), including one sack, during Monday's 30-29 loss to the Chiefs. Perryman sacked Patrick Mahomes late in the third quarter of Monday's matchup against Kansas City, giving him his first quarterback takedown of the year. The veteran linebacker played the most snaps (48) he has yet this season in Week 5, and he'll look to take on a similar role in Week 7 against the Texans once the Raiders return from their Week 6 bye.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Will play Monday night

    Perryman (concussion) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Week 5 at Kansas City, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports. Perryman exited Las Vegas' win over Denver in Week 4 after just 10 plays with a concussion, but he won't miss any more game action due to that particular injury. The veteran linebacker has just eight tackles through two games this season.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Returns to full participation

    Perryman (concussion) was a full participant during Friday's practice, Rachel Gossen of the team's official site reports. Perryman returned to action in Week 4 after missing back-to-back games due to an ankle injury, but he suffered a concussion after just 10 snaps and didn't return. However, after being a limited participant Thursday, he logged a full practice Friday, putting him in line to suit up Monday against the Chiefs. Across 35 defensive snaps, Perryman has recorded eight tackles, but he's yet to finish a full game this season, which is likely why the Raiders signed Blake Martinez to their active roster Friday.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Ruled out with concussion

    Perryman has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a concussion. Perryman missed the last two games due to an ankle injury, and he sustained a concussion in the second half of Sunday's Week 4 matchup. Darien Butler should see increased playing time in Perryman's absence.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Remains in Las Vegas

    Perryman (ankle) will remain with the Raiders for the 2022 season, Levi Damien of USA Today reports. Perryman sustained an ankle injury during the Raiders' wild-card loss to Cincinnati in January, but he should be healthy ahead of offseason activities. He appeared in 15 games last year and logged a career-high 154 tackles (102 solo), three pass defenses, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Forces fumble vs. Colts

    Perryman racked up seven tackles (five solo) and one forced fumble during Sunday's 23-20 win over Indianapolis. Perryman cleared the NFL's health and safety protocols in time to play Week 17, but he saw his defensive snap share decrease to 78 percent. Nonetheless, he was an integral part of Las Vegas' upset win over Indianapolis. Perryman will need to log another productive outing during Week 18's must-win matchup against the Chargers.

  • Raiders' Denzel Perryman: Questionable for Sunday

    Perryman was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday but is still listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts with an ankle injury, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports. Perryman played despite the ankle injury in Week 16, so the more likely issue is whether his former status on the COVID list and subsequent absence from practice during the week affect his conditioning at all. If Perryman can't go, Divine Deablo should see extra playing time.
