From the episode

His catch rate was 58%. One touchdown, 36 targets in total... And that's with a high catchable throw rate from his quarterbacks. 7.4 yards per target. 0.78 yards per route run. This is nasty.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Pierce's short-area receiving metrics are poor: 58% catch rate on throws 15 yards or closer, only 1 TD on 36 such targets, 7.4 yards per target, and 0.78 yards per route run, raising questions about his effectiveness in a shorter role.
