From the article

Played 97 percent of the offense's snaps in Week 6 after Carson Steele injured his shoulder. Now, Steele didn't play until the third drive of the game anyway, but it's probably not realistic to expect the same sort of near every-snap role for Pierce in Week 7. Then again, Steele isn't guaranteed to return, and Philly waived Jaydon Blue (revenge game CANCELED), leaving old friend Elijah Mitchell as seemingly the only competition for touches.

STACKED’s take

NeutralUsage

Pierce's 97% snap rate is likely unsustainable, but volume-based RB2 role remains if Steele misses.

Played 97 percent of snaps in Week 6 after Carson Steele's shoulder injury, though Steele didn't play until the third drive anyway; unlikely to maintain near-every-snap role in Week 7, but Steele's return is not guaranteed and Elijah Mitchell is the only remaining competition; profiles as a volume-based RB2 play despite averaging just 2.1 yards per carry this season.
