Texans | Dameon Pierce ready to go for Houston

Houston Texans RB Dameon Pierce (quadricep) is available for Saturday’s preseason game against the Carolina Panthers after a lengthy battle with a strained quadricep. ‘The expectation is just to be the best version of himself. He’s a physical, violent runner on contact. I’ve had an appreciation for him since he came out of college,’ offensive coordinator Nick Caley told Click2Houston.com.
