Perkins played his most recent season earlier this year in the UFL with the Birmingham Stallions. He had 17 tackles and 3.5 sacks in just five games before an injury ended his season early.
Last NFL season, Perkins started things with the Denver Broncos, but was on injured reserve before the Broncos eventually cut him about a month later.
