Alec Pierce Fantasy Overview

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Colts WR Alec Pierce will miss at least several weeks and "likely" land on IR for the heel he re-injured Sunday night against the Chiefs.

Update: Pierce has been placed on IR, knocking him out for at least the next 4 games.

Colts HC Shane Steichen confirmed Monday that WR Alec Pierce re-injured the heel he had offseason surgery on in Sunday night's loss to the Chiefs. Pierce left the stadium in a walking boot and on crutches. Steichen said Pierce is getting a second opinion on this latest injury, and ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Pierce is considered "week to week." Don't be surprised if he lands on short-term IR.

Colts WR Alec Pierce left in the first quarter of Sunday night's game against the Chiefs with an injury to his left heel. The team has deemed him questionable to return.

Update: The team downgraded Pierce to out before the start of the second half.

Colts WR Keenan Allen is facing a minimum 3-game suspension for his DUI arrest in August, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. But the league could opt for a longer ban because Allen's blood alcohol content was so high. Schefter confirms, though, that the league will wait for the legal process to play out before issuing the suspension. It's unclear exactly when the case will be wrapped, but the next hearing is not scheduled until October 26. It seems like there's a good chance Allen's suspension doesn't come until 2027, but we'll keep you updated on the situation. Allen ran a route on 76% of pass plays in the opener, tying for the team lead with a 19.4% target share. His absence would boost the target projections for Josh Downs, Alec Pierce, and Tyler Warren.
