Dameon Pierce Handles Heavy Workload in Loss

Running back Dameon Pierce rushed 12 times for 35 yards and a touchdown while catching four of five targets for 15 yards in the Philadelphia Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers. With Saquon Barkley, Tank Bigsby, and Will Shipley unavailable, Pierce handled all running back carries. He scored his first rushing touchdown since 2024 on a two-yard run and will retain his lead role if Barkley remains sidelined next week.
