The Houston Texans made an investment in running back for the first time in the draft since 2017.
The Texans picked former Florida running back Dameon Pierce in the fourth round. Pierce averaged 5.7 yards per carry in his final year at Florida, but he didn’t get very many chances to rush with just 100 total on the season.
According to Luke Easterling from the Draft Wire, Pierce ranks as the 15th-best fantasy rookie heading into the 2022 season.
