Alec Pierce Has Major Upside Coming Out of Bye Week

Monday, November 17, 10:47 PM

Before his team's Week 11 bye, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce appeared to be on a clear upward trajectory. Across four games from Week 7 to Week 10, the 25-year-old recorded 17 catches for 366 yards and a touchdown on 35 targets. Pierce has always been a big-play threat, averaging 18.2 yards per reception across 57 career games. However, his 6.5 target-per-game average in 2025 is a career-high and represents a change in his role within the Indianapolis offense. If he can continue to marry explosiveness with more consistent target volume, Pierce could be a true breakout wide receiver down the stretch of the season. In fantasy leagues where he may have been dropped during his bye week, Pierce is a must-add player off the waiver wire, even as the Colts head into a difficult Week 12 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
