Fantasy Impact
Pierce, 24, had a promising rookie career when he started with the Ravens in 2012. That changed in 2013 when he was plagued with injuries, averaging 2.9 yards per rush. In 2014 he only averaged 3.9 yards per rush causing him to lose the starting spot to Justin Forsett. With the Jaguars, this veteran will stand a better chance of getting a starting spot.
