Perryman's Suspension Follows Repeated Violations, Including a Recent Hit on Bengals' Ja’Marr Chase

Houston Texans linebacker Denzel Perryman has been suspended for three games due to repeated violations of rules intended to protect the health and safety of players.
The latest hit occurred in the team’s Week 10 win over the Cincinnati Bengals with a hit on Ja’Marr Chase.
Perryman will be suspended for games against the Arizona Cardinals, Jacksonville Jaguars and Denver Broncos. He’s eligible to return to the Texans’ active roster on Dec. 4.
