Pierce took a step forward last season, setting career-best marks in targets (84), receptions (47) and receiving yards (1,003) in 15 games. His huge play potential was evident, as Pierce was one of only two receivers since 2018 to have 1,000 yards on fewer than 50 receptions.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Pierce's elite efficiency metrics (1st air yards/target, 2nd yards/catch) offset low volume.

Pierce set career-best marks last season with 84 targets, 47 receptions, and 1,003 receiving yards in 15 games. He ranked 1st in air yards/target (18.9), 2nd in yards per target (11.9), 2nd in yards per catch (21.3), and 4th in targets of 20-plus air yards (24). Since 2023, no receiver averages more yards per catch than Pierce (20.2), with 23% of his routes being go routes. However, his deep-field specialization limits consistent usage—he averages just under five targets and 6.7 fantasy points per game, both ranking outside the top 45 receivers.
