Impact: Perkins is exactly what Nick Holt wants with his defensive backs. A long and tall athlete. Perkins, at 6’2”, will come in and be one of the tallest corners that we have on the roster right away.
While Perkins did not have any other Power 5 offers outside of Purdue, he comes from Chicago, which is full of talent all over the city.
