Perkins rushed 237 times for 1,343 yards and 14 touchdowns this fall, closing his Bruins career with a 68-yard effort in a loss to Nebraska in the Foster Farms Bowl.
He led the Pac-12 a year ago with 251 carries for 1,575 yards and nine touchdowns.
Perkins closed his career with 3,491 rushing yards and would have been a strong bet to break Johnathan Franklin‘s UCLA rushing record (4,403 yards) had he returned in 2016.
