The return of Pierce makes this a backfield to avoid in Week 4 fantasy lineups. Pierce played ahead of Akers this preseason and in Week 1, although Akers has been the more effective runner. It's unclear how carries will be divvied between them. And they'll both lose passing-down work to RB Dare Ogunbowale.
