The Houston Texans drafted fourth-round running back Dameon Pierce, but they aren’t just going to give the former Florida product the feature back job.
The 5-10, 215-pound rusher has promise, but the Texans are still experimenting with veterans in the backfield. The Texans signed former Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack and still have Rex Burkhead on the roster.
Burkhead lead the Texans with 122 carries for 427 yards and three touchdowns last season, and he sees Pierce attempting to learn as much as he can about the game.
