Chiefs Sign Dameon Pierce to Practice Squad
The Kansas City Chiefs are signing former Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce to their practice squad, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. He was recently cut loose by the Texans. Once a promising, young running back, Pierce endured a fall from grace and eventually became the odd man out in Houston's backfield. He went from having over 1,100 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie in 2022 to just 26 yards on 10 carries through four games this year. Although he's no longer an impact name in the NFL or fantasy football, the Chiefs hope they can tap into some of his potential, starting by getting him reps on the practice squad. Kansas City needed running back depth with Isiah Pacheco (knee) sidelined and Elijah Mitchell (healthy scratch) losing relevance. It's unlikely that Pierce will have any sort of short-term fantasy value in Kansas City, but the fresh start is promising nonetheless.
