Dameon Pierce’s epic tackle-breaking run against the Jacksonville Jaguars was one of the angriest of the season as he punished defenders with his downhill style.
Pierce thrived as an NFL rookie as an instant hit and emerged as the most dangerous weapon on the offense and arguably the top player on the team besides Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil.
Pierce, placed on injured reserve after getting hurt against the Dallas Cowboys, finished with 1,026 yards from scrimmage despite missing the final four games of the season. Now, Pierce is reflecting on his first NFL season and aiming even higher. “It was an administrative decision to put me on IR so I could get into my offseason program heading into next year. Just making sure I was ready and healthy enough to get a jumpstart on my offseason program, so I’m not off timing-wise when it comes to strength and conditioning, vacation time and all that.”
