Colts to Place Wide Receiver Alec Pierce on Injured Reserve
Jeremy Fowler reported the Colts hope Alec Pierce misses four to six weeks as he rehabs a heel injury, though surgery remains possible.
- The Indianapolis Colts officially placed wide receiver Alec Pierce on injured reserve Wednesday, mandating a minimum four-game absence for the 26-year-old deep threat.
- Pierce aggravated his surgically repaired left heel during Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, leaving the field on a cart unable to place weight on his injured leg.
- Head coach Shane Steichen said he does "not have a timetable" for Pierce's return, though ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reported a four-to-six-week recovery window is realistic.
- The Colts signed former Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton on Tuesday to add depth, joining Josh Downs, Keenan Allen, and rookie Deion Burks in the receiving rotation.
- Facing a 0-2 start, the Colts play four opponents with a combined 1-7 record over the next month, with Pierce sidelined for at least four games including a London matchup against the Washington Commanders.
