Pierce continues rehab after left ankle surgery in March. The surgery was needed to fix a problem he's had since 2024 after a platelet-rich plasma treatment in January didn't work as hoped. Pierce was expected to need 4-6 months post-surgery, which will keep him sidelined into training camp.

Pierce sidelined into training camp with ankle surgery recovery; career-high 2025 production.

Pierce is on the active/PUP list following left ankle surgery in March 2026; the surgery addressed a chronic ankle issue dating to 2024 that did not respond to platelet-rich plasma treatment in January. Expected recovery is 4–6 months post-surgery, keeping him sidelined into training camp. He can return once he passes a physical before the Aug. 30 roster cut-down. Pierce re-signed with the Colts on a four-year, $114 million deal after setting career highs with 47 receptions, 1,003 yards, and six touchdowns last season.
