Dameon Pierce Leads Texans Past Titans

Dameon Pierce delivered an impressive performance in the Houston Texans' 23-14 victory over the Tennessee Titans, rushing for 176 yards and scoring a remarkable 92-yard touchdown, the longest rushing touchdown of the season. This significant run, which marked the second-longest in Texans history, occurred early in the second quarter and showcased Pierce's speed as he went virtually untouched. Despite facing competition from star running back Joe Mixon and battling injuries throughout the season, Pierce made the most of his opportunity with a career-high rushing performance. His touchdown was a highlight in a game that saw many Texans starters resting ahead of the playoffs, where they are seeded No. 4. Pierce’s performance was celebrated by teammates, including Mixon, who expressed pride in his achievement. This victory not only capped off a challenging season for Pierce but also provided a morale boost for the team as they prepare for the postseason.
