Pierce (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Pierce was also listed as a non-participant last week before being ruled out ahead of this past Thursday's loss to the Jets. With another absence from practice Wednesday, the running back's status for Sunday's game against the Lions remains cloudy. If Pierce remains sidelined this weekend, Dare Ogunbowale and J.J. Taylor would continue to see complementary snaps behind top back Joe Mixon.
