Perry joined the Worcester academy in the summer of 2014. He was a key member of the Cavaliers side that reached the A league final and won the British and Irish Cup in 2015. During this season he scored 3 tries in the B&I Cup, including a solo score in the 15-13 B&I Cup semi-final win against Leinster A and three tries in seven games in the Aviva A League. Perry also made one appearance for Cinderford in National League 1, making a good impression on début.[3]

Humphreys signed a Worcester first team deal in February 2016.[4] He made his premiership debut for Worcester Warriors against Saracens in the London Double Header at Twickenham. He came off the bench at half time the following week against Gloucester, scoring a solo effort in the corner. He has gone on to score in subsequent gameweeks against Bath and Sale. On 5 October 2022 all Worcester players had their contacts terminated due to the liquidation of the company to which they were contracted.[5]
