As a team the 2022 Houston Texans were forgettable. However, the roster for the franchise’s 21st season produced underrated talent that is starting to gain national recognition.
Dameon Pierce earned a measure of that attention in his rookie season. The fourth-round running back generated 939 yards through 13 games, finishing third in the league among all rookies. Assuredly the Florida product could have crested the 1,000-yard mark if he had played the final four games, and become the first Texans rookie to do so.
