Dameon Pierce News
Thursday, March 19, 8:36 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles announced on Thursday that they agreed to terms on an undisclosed one-year deal with free-agent running back Dameon Pierce. The 26-year-old was originally drafted in the fourth round (107th overall) by the Houston Texans in 2022 out of the University of Florida. He had 1,648 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns on 405 rushing attempts in his first three years in the league with Houston before spending 2025 with Houston and the Kansas City Chiefs. Pierce saw only 14 rushing attempts last year for 36 yards. He has not been able to replicate his rookie season in 2022, when he ran for 939 yards and four touchdowns on a career-high 220 rushing attempts. In Philly, Pierce will compete for the RB3 duties with Will Shipley, behind starter Saquon Barkley and Tank Bigsby. For now, he remains off the fantasy radar in all formats.

Khalil Herbert News
Thursday, October 2, 12:22 PM
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the New York Jets have signed running back Khalil Herbert to an undisclosed contract. Per Rapoport, the team placed running back Braelon Allen (knee) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. The Virginia Tech product was recently signed to Seattle's practice squad, but he'll now add depth in New York's backfield. With Allen out, and backfield mate Kene Nwangwu's (hamstring) status up in the air, it's possible that Herbert will see work right away behind starter Breece Hall and backup Isaiah Davis. The 27-year-old doesn't figure to be slated for a fantasy-relevant role, but he's at least on the deep handcuff radar in case the assets in front of him were to miss any time. The Jets will take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5.
