Alec Pierce Finds End Zone Again In Week 2 Loss
2 months agoIndianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce led all pass-catchers when he grabbed five of his seven targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers. This now makes two weeks in a row where Pierce was the most productive member of the WR room, ahead of the likes of WRs Michael Pittman Jr. and Adonai Mitchell, who were projected to have more involved roles than Pierce. Pierce also led all three in snaps with 53, further solidifying himself as a legitimate option in the offense. It's unclear how snap shares may differ when WR Josh Downs (knee) returns to the lineup, but Pierce looks to be QB Anthony Richardson's favorite target thus far in the season. Fantasy managers in all formats should look to him as a Waiver Wire target but might want to follow the status of Downs' Week 3 availability against the Chicago Bears before inserting him into lineups.
