Alec Pierce News
Wednesday, June 10, 5:21 PM
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) didn't participate in OTAs or minicamp practices while he recovers from surgery. Pierce underwent a clean-up procedure on his ankle that has been bothering him for years. Pierce hasn't been on the field yet, but believes he'll be ready to go at some point during training camp. The Colts are going to play it safe and make sure Pierce is 100 percent ready before getting him back into the mix. The expectation is that Pierce will have no lingering effects from this ankle problem that has plagued him since 2024. Despite not being fully healthy, Pierce still finished with over 1,000 receiving yards this past season. He signed a massive $114 million extension with the Colts and is expected to be a focal point in the offense moving forward.

Emeka Egbuka News
Thursday, June 25, 5:25 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka was the first player in NFL history to record 25-plus receptions, 400-plus receiving yards, and five-plus touchdowns in his first five career games, pacing as the WR3 over that stretch. While his torrid opening pace fell off dramatically over the back half of the year, there's still plenty to be excited about if he can reestablish a more consistent connection with quarterback Baker Mayfield in his second season. Even while disappointing fantasy managers, Egbuka finished the year with 938 yards on 63 receptions, and with six-time Pro Bowler Mike Evans no longer part of the team, the 2025 first-round pick should see an uptick in first-read targets. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR12, opinions are likely split on the 23-year-old wideout, making him an intriguing trade target who could be viewed as a foundational piece to a rebuilding roster or a usable weekly contributor for contending managers.
