One of the most anticipated backfield combinations Clutch City sports fans want to see is the partnership of C.J. Stroud and Dameon Pierce.
The Houston Texans found their bell-cow running back last season with Pierce, who generated 939 rushing yards and six touchdowns in just 13 games. Pair Pierce with a talented field general, and the Texans’ offense could have a two-dimensional approach that could attack defenses.
Stroud and Pierce were able to work together during Texans OTAs at Houston Methodist Training Center in video shot by KPRC-TV’s Aaron Wilson.
The No. 2 overall pick threw the former 2022 fourth-rounder a simple dump off, but there is no doubt more collaboration in the works with Stroud and Pierce.
