NFL Future Watch: Dameon Pierce Football Cards, Houston TexansNFL Future Watch: Dameon Pierce Football Cards, Houston TexansDameon Pierce was drafted by the Houston Texans with the 107th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He’s 5’10” and 215 pounds of a solid running back who has a chance to be great.

By the time he left Bainbridge High School, in Bainbridge, Georgia, he was a star. As a senior, he rushed for 2,123 yards and 32 touchdowns. He was deemed a four-star recruit and became a Gator.

While at the University of Florida, Pierce rushed for 424 yards and two touchdowns as a freshman. At a talent-laden school, he didn’t get redshirted, a big plus.

Pierce was still battling for playing time as a sophomore. He played on special teams to get more reps. As a running back, he ran for 305 yards and four touchdowns.

As a junior, he was used a bit more. His 503 yards and four touchdowns were good. As a receiver, Pierce had 17 catches for 156 yards and a touchdown.

His senior year was in 2022. It was good but not fantastic. He gained 574 yards and had 13 touchdowns on exactly 100 carries. Pierce was used more through the air as well catching 19 passes for 216 yards and three touchdowns.

At the NFL Combine, Pierce ran 4.59 in the 40-yard dash. He did 21 reps on the weight bench. That helped him get drafted, but he still didn’t go until the fourth round.

Now 22, Pierce has speed to turn the corner and go to the house. And he can run in-between the tackles to move the chains. He’s good near the goal line since he is very powerful too. He may not be an every down back, but who is anymore? What he can be is a #1 or #2 back that can help make it easier for the quarterback heading into third down by gaining important yards on first and second downs.
