Alec Pierce News
Monday, October 19, 10:56 AM
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen said that wide receiver Alec Pierce (heel) will not return to practice this week as he continues to rehab a heel injury, according to Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan. Bowen does not think Pierce will come off Injured Reserve anytime soon. The 26-year-old big-play wideout aggravated his surgically repaired left heel in the Week 2 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and has not played since. While Pierce might be making progress, he has been slow to recover, and it does not sound like he is close to a return, even though he is technically eligible to come off IR for the team's Week 7 contest this weekend against the Minnesota Vikings. Pierce's big-play abilities downfield make him worth stashing in most fantasy football leagues despite his injury. Until he can return, Josh Downs and veteran Keenan Allen will continue to see more targets, especially if tight end Tyler Warren (groin) misses anymore time. Pierce has led the NFL in yards per catch in each of the last two seasons and had his first 1,000-yard receiving season in 2025.

Caleb Douglas News
Saturday, October 24, 7:23 PM
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Caleb Douglas is on track to play in his first game since Week 2, when he suffered an ankle injury. It's now Week 7, and Douglas will look to return to his sizable role as soon as he steps back onto the field. In his only two games so far this year, the Texas Tech product played more than 86% of the snaps. He fetched seven targets in the season opener but was held to just two catches for 19 yards the following week. Douglas has a chance to lead the receiver room in snaps this week, with Chris Bell and Malik Washington serving as his primary competition to earn targets. The 23-year-old was dropped in many leagues when he went down, but he has the youth and upside to be productive, even on a team that is heading for the worst record in football.
