Dameon Pierce Noticeably Leaner Heading Into Year 2
1 year agoHouston Texans running back Dameon Pierce is noticeably leaner than he was as a rookie heading into Year 2. The 23-year-old running back said he's been working with a nutritionist and working hard to slim down. As a rookie, the University of Florida product rushed 220 times for 939 yards and four touchdowns, adding 30 receptions for 165 yards and a receiving score. Getting into better shape could help him add more speed and reduce his injury risk, so it's a positive development. Pierce will likely have a limited ceiling due to a mediocre Texans offense, but he should handle a significant workload every week, assuming Devin Singletary doesn't outshine him during training camp.
