Dameon Pierce, Florida, Player News

Florida Gators running back Dameon Pierce laughs as he answers a question from the media during a press conference Thursday morning at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. In 2020 Gator fans enjoyed one of the most prolific offenses in Florida football history led by Heisman Trophy finalist quarterback Kyle Trask and first-round NFL draft picks Kyle Pitts and Kadarius Toney. The Gators finished the season with a nation-leading 388.4 yards passing per game. The running game, however, averaged 120.5 yard per game an d finished 12th in the SEC ahead of Vanderbilt and Mississippi State.With Trask gone as well as his top three pass catchers from last season, things are expected to look a little different this year. Senior Dameon Pierce returns to lead what shoul d be a strong stable of running backs in 2021 - a position group head coach Dan Mullen says is his least concerning unit. Pierce admitted it was frustrating at times last season as the Gators primarily moved the ball through the air. He said he used that time to improve his pass protection and route running. "We had a generational quarterback here at Florida and maybe one of the greatest tight ends in the history of college football," Pierce said. Despite Florida's lack of a running game Pierce finished with 503 yards on 106 carries and four touchdowns. He also caught 17 balls for 156 yards and a score. - Gainesville Sun

Dameon Pierce is taking on more of a leadership role this year in Florida's deep running back room. Helping out the younger players at the position and splitting more carries with them hasn't been a challenge for him. It's coming to grips with his senior ity. "Finally admitting that I'm old," Pierce quipped when asked what's the biggest change in his role. Pierce is one of just five returning starters for the Gators on offense after starting 10 of their 12 games last season, leading the team in rushing w ith 503 yards and four touchdowns. UF also brings back redshirt senior Malik Davis (310 yards) and redshirt sophomore Nay'Quan Wright (213 yards, two scores) from 2020. The trio of backs combined for more than 1,000 yards rushing and 752 yards in the pas sing game, with Davis leading the way (31 catches for 377 yards) followed by Wright (19 catches for 219 yards) and Pierce (17 catches for 156 yards, one TD). - Times Union
