Pierce's red-zone target rate was only 11.6%, about half of desired levels, but it can increase with Pittman gone since Pierce is 6-foot-3 and well-sized for the red zone.PositiveValueJul 17, 2026
Pierce is underpriced at WR36 ADP versus author's WR23 ranking and has more upside than Jameson Williams (WR27) because he can be the alpha receiver. With Pittman gone, ~40 of 111 vacated targets should shift to Pierce, projecting ~1,200 yards.
