Perine (foot) may not be available to play Week 1 against the Panthers given the Jets signed Josh Adams off the practice squad Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Coach Robert Saleh previously said Perine was expected to be available for Week 1, but the addition of Adams from the practice squad indicates the team wanted more depth at running back. Perine's status should receive additional clarity once the Jets release their first injury report Wednesday, but for now, his availability appears to be up in the air.
