Colts Reaching Deal With Alec Pierce on Tuesday "Feels Possible"

Tuesday, March 3, 6:53 AM

The Indianapolis Colts are gaining positive momentum on a potential long-term deal with impending free-agent wide receiver Alec Pierce, and it "feels possible" that the two sides could strike a deal as soon as Tuesday, according to Stephen Holder of ESPN. However, there is still a long way to go, and the situation will likely come down to the franchise-tag deadline on Tuesday afternoon. Holder adds that Pierce wants certainty at the quarterback position, so if Daniel Jones (Achilles) isn't signed to an extension, he won't have as much reason to sign a long-term deal himself with the Colts. Pierce was the Colts' leading receiver in 2025 and has led the NFL in yards per catch in each of the last two years. He had a career-high 47 catches last year for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns. Pierce's 2026 fantasy value will be tied to Jones' future in Indy and his injury status after tearing his Achilles late last season.

Kyle Williams Struggles to Emerge as a Rookie

Thursday, February 12, 9:21 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams flew under the radar for most of his rookie season, catching just 10 passes for 209 yards and three touchdowns. Williams' underproduction wasn't necessarily due to a lack of talent, as the third-round pick has made big plays throughout his college career and early in his NFL career. Rather, he was buried on the depth chart behind players like Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, and even DeMario Douglas. New England doesn't have any impending free agent wide receivers, but Williams still has the potential to climb up the depth chart entering his second season. Year 2 is a common time for young receivers to make a major leap, so we wouldn't be surprised if Williams contributes at a much higher rate in 2026. It's a bit too early to invest in the Washington State product in redraft leagues, but he's a solid, affordable dynasty buy heading into the offseason.
