Most of those targets went to wide receiver Alec Pierce, the NFL's back-to-back leader in yards per reception; beyond him, Indianapolis lacks another deep threat. That should lead the Ravens to deploy some bracket coverage against Pierce to prevent him from taking the top off the defense.

Pierce's deep-threat role draws Ravens bracket coverage in Week 1 matchup.

Alec Pierce is the NFL's back-to-back leader in yards per reception and Indianapolis's primary deep threat; however, the Ravens will likely deploy bracket coverage against him to prevent him from taking the top off the defense, and may bait Daniel Jones with a 1-on-1 pre-snap look only to have Malaki Starks or Jaylinn Hawkins fly back to cover a potential deep shot.
