Pierce is the perfect example. His heel was already a known concern after offseason surgery, yet Indianapolis entered the year without much proven insurance behind him. Once Pierce aggravated the injury, the Colts reacted by signing Darius Slayton in late September.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Heel injury aggravated; poor depth planning behind starter exposed.

Pierce's heel injury, already a known concern after offseason surgery, was aggravated during the season. The source criticizes the Colts' roster construction for lacking proven depth behind him; when Pierce went down, Indianapolis scrambled to sign Darius Slayton as emergency depth rather than having functional NFL players ready. This exemplifies poor preparation and reflects the broader problem of the Colts' inability to maintain offensive production when starters are unavailable.
