News

  • Career day on SNF

    Pierce had four receptions on eight targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 54-19 loss to Dallas.

    Analysis: Matt Ryan connected with Pierce for a touchdown to bring the score to 21-19, but that's as close as the Colts would come to victory before the wheels fell off the wagon in the fourth quarter. The rookie slot man set a new high in receiving yards (86) while scoring his second touchdown of the season. Pierce posted a bagel against the Steelers last week, so while this stat line was encouraging, it shouldn't cause a huge spike in his rostered percentage as Indianapolis enters its bye. The Colts…read more

  • No receptions Monday

    Pierce did not have a reception on two targets in Monday's loss to Pittsburgh.

    Analysis: Pierce has disappeared after a promising first half of the season. He has just four receptions on 14 targets in his last four games, including two games with no catches. Jelani Woods had a big game Monday and Parris Campbell has improved after a terrible first half of the season, so Pierce's role in a low-volume passing game may continue to suffer even if this is a short-term slump.

  • Weak production on eight targets

    Pierce caught three passes for 28 yards on eight targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.

    Analysis: Pierce's target count was encouraging, and his weak efficiency is rationalized by the fact that it was a very difficult matchup. Pierce saw a lot of Darius Slay, the top Eagles corner and one of the league's best corners in general. The Steelers don't have any such cover men on their defense, so Pierce has a good chance to get back on track against Pittsburgh in Week 12.

  • No receptions Sunday

    Pierce did not have a reception on two targets in Sunday's win at Las Vegas.

    Analysis: Pierce played on 37 of the offense's 64 snaps and notably wasn't a starter (Austin Dulin started in a three-WR set). He had clicked with Matt Ryan earlier in the season, so it would have seemed the move back to Ryan as the starting quarterback would help Pierce. It's possible the coaching change to Jeff Saturday has moved Pierce back in the game plan, meaning this performance can't be entirely written off.

  • Just one reception in loss

    Pierce had one reception for 23 yards on two targets in Sunday's loss at New England.

    Analysis: Sam Ehlinger passed for just 103 yards as the Colts struggled in a blowout loss, so it's hard to read too much into this performance. Indy has a much better matchup at Las Vegas this week, but Ehlinger's struggles could limit Pierce to only a few deep balls per game.

  • Leads Colts in receiving yards

    Pierce recorded three receptions on five targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Commanders.

    Analysis: Pierce's line isn't all that impressive on its own, but he made a couple of athletic catches and was regularly targeted deep down the field. His performance was highlighted by a 47-yard catch, the Colts' longest play from scrimmage. While the switch from Matt Ryan to Sam Ehlinger at quarterback could hurt the likes of Michael Pittman and Jonathan Taylor, Pierce is one potential beneficiary due to the relative arm strength of each signal-caller combined with Pierce's role in the offense.

  • Just three receptions

    Pierce had three receptions for 37 yards on four targets in Sunday's loss at Tennessee.

    Analysis: Pierce has become a favorite target of Matt Ryan, but he didn't get many looks Sunday with the passing offense struggling. Ryan needed to check down to shorter targets while constantly under pressure, leading to nine targets for Michael Pittman in the slot and five for running back Nyheim Hines.

  • Finds end zone in win

    Pierce brought in three of seven targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 34-27 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Analysis: Pierce was putting together a relatively quiet encore to his career-best 8-81 line against the Broncos in Week 5, but he delivered at the most critical time via a 32-yard scoring grab with only 17 seconds remaining that turned out to be the game-winning touchdown. Pierce appears to be getting increasingly comfortable the more he plays with Matt Ryan, and he'll aim to continue building that chemistry in a Week 7 AFC South road matchup against the Titans.

  • Career-best effort in win

    Pierce secured eight of nine targets for 81 yards in the Colts' 12-9 overtime win over the Broncos on Thursday night. He also committed a fumble recovered by Indianapolis.

    Analysis: The rookie stepped up with team-high reception, receiving yardage and target totals for the night, and he recorded a 3-33 line on the Colts' game-tying drive late in regulation. Pierce's totals were also new career highs, sending him into a Week 6 AFC South home showdown against the Jaguars a week from Sunday with plenty of momentum.

  • Emerging as big-play threat

    Pierce recorded four catches on six targets for 80 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Pierce posted his best game as a pro, primarily on the strength of a pair of big plays that went for 44 and 25 yards, respectively. Matt Ryan spread the ball around fairly evenly between several Colts pass catchers, which could bode well for Pierce's ongoing involvement in the offense. Pierce has also shown the ability to deliver big plays, as three of his first seven receptions as a pro have gone for more than 20 yards.

  • Totals 61 yards in return

    Pierce (concussion) caught three of five targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chiefs.

    Analysis: Pierce returned after missing Week 2 and immediately stepped into the No. 2 wide receiver role behind Michael Pittman, who returned from a quadriceps injury of his own. The rookie second-round pick will look to solidify his spot as Matt Ryan's second option in the passing game Week 4 against a Titans defense that's tied for the most touchdowns allowed to wide receivers with six this season.

  • Past concussion, will play Sunday

    Pierce cleared the concussion protocol Thursday and will be available for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: Pierce picked up the head injury Week 1, when he played 51 percent of the Colts' offensive snaps but was unable to haul in either of his targets. The rookie second-round pick will miss just one game as a result of the injury, and he'll set his sights on his first reception as a pro this weekend.

  • Listed as full practice participant

    Pierce (concussion) practiced fully Wednesday, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Pierce still has to receive clearance from an independent neurologist before exiting the NFL's concussion protocol, but his full practice to begin the week suggests he's on track to do so ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Meanwhile, top wideout Michael Pittman (quadriceps) returned to practice Wednesday in a limited capacity, which bodes well for his chances of suiting up this weekend.

  • On track to practice

    Pierce (concussion) is slated to practice Wednesday, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Fellow wideout Michael Pittman (quadriceps) is also set to take the field for the Colts' first Week 3 practice session, with head coach Frank Reich expressing optimism that both players will have a good chance to play Sunday against the Chiefs. After being shut out by Jacksonville in Week 2, the Colts offense can use all the help it can get this weekend, and Pierce's anticipated participation in practice Wednesday offers hope that he's progressing through the NFL's concussion protocol.

  • Won't play in Week 2

    Coach Frank Reich relayed Friday that Pierce (concussion) won't play Sunday against the Jaguars, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Pierce not yet able to pass through the NFL's concussion protocol, per Holder, the 2022 second-rounder will target a potential return to action Week 3. In his absence this weekend, Ashton Dulin and Mike Strachan are candidates to log added snaps versus Jacksonville.

  • Upgrades to limited activity

    Pierce (concussion) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: According to George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin, Pierce wasn't taking contact Thursday, but his limited activity nonetheless represents a step forward in his advancement through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol after he had been listed as a non-participant Wednesday. The rookie receiver will likely need to upgrade to full participation Friday and receive clearance from an independent neurologist in order to enter Sunday's game in Jacksonville without a designation. If neither…read more

  • In concussion protocol

    Pierce entered the NFL's concussion protocol Wednesday, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Per Keefer, the rookie second-round pick absorbed a hit to the head on a play down the middle in Sunday's season-opening tie with the Texans. As a result, Pierce, who didn't practice Wednesday, will need to progress through concussion protocol in order to be cleared for this weekend's contest against the Jaguars. If he's out Week 2, Ashton Dulin and Mike Strachan would be candidates to see added snaps behind Michael Pittman and Parris Campbell.

  • No catches in debut

    Pierce did not secure either of his two targets, including a drop that hit his hands for a potential easy touchdown catch, in the Colts' 20-20 overtime tie with the Texans on Sunday.

    Analysis: Pierce garnered a significant role on paper to open the season, but the second-round pick wasn't able to connect with Matt Ryan on either of the two throws that went his way in his debut and his big drop may have hurt his confidence in the offense. Pierce could eventually take over clear-cut No. 2 receiver duties as the season unfolds, but at least in Week 1, he was clearly behind Parris Campbell, who recorded a 3-37 line on four targets. Pierce's next opportunity to break the ice comes in a…read more

  • Goes without target Saturday

    Pierce started Saturday's preseason win versus the Buccaneers, but he wasn't targeted on eight offensive snaps.

    Analysis: Pierce joined Michael Pittman and Parris Campbell in the starting lineup, but only Pittman (3-29-0 on three targets) made an impact in the box score. Overall, Pierce ends exhibition season with three catches on four targets for 36 yards, while Campbell went without a reception on two targets. Pierce, a 2022 second-round pick, appears set to be a regular part of the Colts' receiving corps this year, but Pittman likely will dominate the attention of new quarterback Matt Ryan, somewhat capping the…read more

  • Minimal action Saturday

    Pierce caught his only target for nine yards in Saturday's 27-26 preseason loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: Most Colts starters played sparingly, if at all, so it's hard to glean too much information from this game. Parris Campbell, who's competing with Pierce for the No. 2 wide receiver role, saw the field briefly but didn't have any passes thrown his way. Meanwhile, Nick Foles connected with Pierce to move the chains on a 3rd-and-9 in Detroit territory on the opening drive. How the rookie out of Cincinnati is used in the Aug. 27 preseason finale against Tampa Bay could provide a better indication…read more

  • Two receptions in preseason debut

    Pierce had two receptions for 27 yards on three targets in Saturday's preseason loss to Buffalo. He began the game as a starting receiver when the Colts opened in a three-receiver set, 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Pierce made both his receptions with the second-team offense as he stayed on the field after Matt Ryan left after four series. Saturday's game showed Pierce is set to be a significant part of the offense right away, even if he comes off the field in two-receiver sets (as has frequently been the case in training camp).

  • Running with starters

    Pierce has mostly worked with the first-team offense in training camp, Zak Keefer of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Pierce and Parris Campbell are getting most of the reps alongside No. 1 receiver Michael Pittman, while Ashton Dulin reportedly has a solid lead for the No. 4 job. Keefer notes that Pierce has made a strong impression with his speed and contested catches, but the second-round pick also has shown his youth with frequent mistakes, which is probably to be expected in a complicated offense where the coach wants his wide receivers to know the routes and alignments for each of the three receiver…read more

  • Begins with second unit

    Pierce began training camp primarily working with the second-team offense with Parris Campbell working with the starters, the Indianapolis Star reports.

    Analysis: This isn't a surprise since the oft-injured veteran Campbell is healthy for the moment and Pierce is a rookie (2022 2nd-round pick) who will need to earn his way into the starting lineup. Still, it's Campbell who is starting in two-receiver sets. Pierce still has a ton of upside due to his size and speed (6-foot-3 and 211 pounds with 4.41 speed) and should at a minimum get plenty of usage in three-receiver sets. Pierce is also healthy as camp begins after missing some time in spring practices…read more
