Pierce expected back to practice this week; September 13 opener still in play.

Alec Pierce (ankle) is expected to return to practice this week according to coach Shane Steichen, recovering from minor ankle/heel clean-up surgery in late March with an initial four-to-six month recovery timetable. While he will miss the preseason home finale and needs to ramp up conditioning, his return to practice makes the Colts regular season home opener against Baltimore on September 13th a realistic target date, which was the team's expectation all along.
