Matt Harmon notes that while Alec Pierce has improved on intermediate in-breaking routes, he remains a 'limited menu' player who functions best as an X receiver. Harmon expresses concern about his lack of versatility to move off-ball or into the slot, and notes that Pierce currently has no timetable for return from injury.PositiveValueAug 3, 2026
Adam Levitan views the recent dip in Alec Pierce's ADP (sinking toward pick 90) as a buying opportunity. Despite starting camp on PUP following ankle surgery, Levitan notes that Daniel Jones's recovery is a positive sign for the offense, and suggests Pierce's ankle might be improved post-surgery.PositiveNewsJul 29, 2026

Pierce starts camp on active/PUP (not practicing) with left ankle injury dating to 2024. GM Chris Ballard said Pierce is one to two weeks away from practicing. Pierce played well despite not being 100% last year; had PRP injection that didn't work, then surgery after signing $84M guaranteed contract. Silva expects Pierce to return to vertical-route role (unchanged from before). Levitan sees buying opportunity: Pierce played through injury and played well; Colts optimistic enough to pay $84M guaranteed while knowing about injury; they let Michael Pittman go. Silva ranked 77 overall; home league ADP 83, best ball closer to 90. Concern: if Pierce stays vertical-only with Daniel Jones coming off Achilles, that's tough. But at this cost, interesting value.PositiveValueJun 22, 2026
