Top Dameon Pierce News

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Minimal usage in return

    Pierce has one carry for two yards in Monday's 34-10 win over Dallas. He also returned one kickoff for five yards.

    Pierce was given just four snaps on offense, as the Texans made it the Joe Mixon show in primetime. Mixon typically dominates the backfield, but his 81 percent share of the snaps was a season high. This was Pierce's first game back after missing the previous two due to a groin injury, so his workload could tick up as he puts the issue further behind him.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: All set for Monday

    Pierce (groin) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's contest against the Cowboys.

    This was to be expected after Pierce practiced fully Friday. The backup running back will be poised to retain his role behind one of the better backs in the NFL this year, Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Upgrades to full participation

    Pierce (groin) was a full participant in practice Friday.

    Pierce's activity level Friday suggests he's finally over the groin injury that sidelined him for Houston's past two games. Barring a setback, he's likely to avoid an injury designation on Saturday's injury report, which would put him in line to reclaim the backup role behind Joe Mixon against the Cowboys on Monday Night Football.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Back at practice

    Pierce (groin) returned to practice Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Pierce, who has missed two straight games, didn't practice ahead of Week 10 action, so the running back's participation in Thursday's session -- albeit in a limited fashion -- bodes well for his chances of being available Monday night against the Cowboys. If Pierce does suit up for the contest, he'd step back into a complementary role behind top back Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Won't face Detroit

    Pierce (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Pierce will miss his second straight game, allowing Dare Ogunbowale and J.J. Taylor to handle backup duties behind workhorse Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Another missed practice

    Pierce (groin) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    After also missing Wednesday's session, Pierce now has one more chance to practice ahead of Sunday night's game against the Lions. In the event that Pierce remains sidelined for a second straight game this weekend, Dare Ogunbowale and J.J. Taylor would be in line to continue to work in complementary roles behind lead back Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Misses Wednesday's practice

    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.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Ruled out for Thursday

    Pierce (groin) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Jets.

    Pierce, whom the Texans listed as a non-participant on all three Week 9 injury reports, will thus target a potential return to action Nov. 10 against the Lions. In his absence, Dare Ogunbowale will likely step in as the top backup to lead back Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Sidelined again at practice

    Pierce (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    With Pierce being listed as a non-participant on both of the Texans' Week 9 injury report, he doesn't seem to be tracking toward playing Thursday against the Jets. The groin issue is a new one for the running back, as he battled hamstring issues prior to Week 8. If Pierce isn't able to suit up Thursday, Dare Ogunbowale would be in line for backup duties behind lead back Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Listed as DNP with groin injury

    Pierce (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    It's a new injury for Pierce, as he previously battled hamstring issues earlier in the season. Pierce rushed one time for four yards in Sunday's Week 8 win over the Colts. If Pierce can't play in Thursday night's date with the Jets, Dare Ogunbowale would handle change-of-pace duties behind Joe Mixon.

  • Texans' Dameon Pierce: Four snaps in win

    Pierce had one carry for four yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts in Week 8. He also returned two kickoffs for 78 yards.

    Pierce saw his playing time erode even further in the third game since both he and Joe Mixon returned from injuries. Pierce had just three carries for six yards and 11 combined snaps on offense the last two weeks. He can, however, make an impact in the return game. His 45-yard return of the opening kickoff set up the Texans near midfield for a drive that culminated in a field goal.
