Colts' Shane Steichen shares promising update on Alec Pierce's injury recovery
Here's what we know about Alec Pierce's status for the Colts.
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen has shared an encouraging update regarding the injury recovery of wide receiver Alec Pierce. Pierce had to withdraw from the 2025 season due to ankle and heel surgery. Although Pierce has not yet returned to practice, Steichen expressed optimism about Pierce potentially joining the team for practice this week.
Pierce's recovery is crucial for the Colts, as he had a remarkable 1,000-yard season in his previous year and is still in the prime of his physical abilities. If Pierce does not recover in time for Week 1, backup receiver Ashton Dulin, who has spent his entire NFL career with the Colts, would step in.
