The Superstar RB Chased by Half the NFL, but He Only Wants the Eagles — and Despite the Obstacles, Philadelphia Is Doing Everything Possible to Secure His Signature

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – November 24, 2025

Dameon Pierce has become the most wanted running back in football. After parting ways with the Houston Texans, the 25-year-old power runner instantly ignited a bidding war across the league. Sources confirm that nearly half the NFL reached out with interest — including the Chargers, Broncos, Bears, Colts, Bengals, and even the Dolphins.

But in the middle of the chaos, one truth emerged above all others:
Pierce only wanted the Eagles.

Reports indicate that Philadelphia pursued the deal aggressively from the start. General manager Howie Roseman even contacted Pierce personally, making it clear that the Eagles saw him as a perfect fit for a backfield searching for consistency, physicality, and playoff-caliber explosiveness.

Even after the Kansas City Chiefs moved quickly to place Pierce on their practice squad, the Eagles refused to back down. Under league rules, any team can sign a practice-squad player if they offer an active-roster spot — and Philadelphia is fully prepared to do exactly that.

Despite the complicated situation, Eagles fans were sent into a frenzy when Dameon Pierce spoke publicly about the wave of offers coming his way. His comment hinted unmistakably at where his heart is leaning:

“Those offers were truly tempting, but only one team made me feel like I wanted to become part of them — like a family I could belong to. If the day comes when I get to wear that Midnight Green, that will be the moment I know I’ve found exactly where I’m meant to be.”

The message was clear:
This isn’t about money. Not about opportunity.
It’s about belonging — and for Pierce, belonging means Philadelphia.

The Eagles continue to push, determined to give their offense the bruising, dynamic runner it needs. Pierce, meanwhile, has made no effort to hide the fact that he already knows where he wants to go.

The door is still open. The league is watching.
And Dameon Pierce may soon become the newest weapon in Midnight Green — the one who chose the Eagles even when half the NFL was calling his name.
