Alec Pierce Underwent Offseason Ankle Surgery, Expected to Be Ready for Training Camp

Monday, April 20, 8:38 AM

Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard said that wide receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) underwent ankle surgery, per ESPN's Stephen Holder. Pierce reportedly played through pain in the ankle last season. The surgery will keep him from participating in OTAs, but Pierce should be ready to go for training camp. The 25-year-old had the best year of his career in 2025, recording 47 receptions for 1,003 yards and six touchdowns on 84 targets across 15 games. The Colts rewarded Pierce earlier this offseason with a four-year, $114 million extension. The team also traded away veteran wideout Michael Pittman Jr., which could mean Pierce will be expected to expand his route tree beyond his usual downfield role. While it sounds as though Pierce should have a normal training camp, this ankle ailment will be something for fantasy managers to monitor heading into 2026.

Marvin Mims Jr.'s Path to Dynasty Relevance May Require a Change in Scenery

Sunday, May 3, 11:59 AM

After his encouraging close to the 2024 season, Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. was one of the buzzier names in fantasy circles entering 2025. However, the 24-year-old remained siloed to a limited role in his team's offense, recording just 37 receptions for 322 yards and one touchdown on 51 targets across 15 games. Heading into 2026, Mims Jr. now appears to be buried on the Broncos wide receiver depth chart. Denver acquired star wideout Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins early in the offseason, adding to a deep group of wideouts that also includes Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant. While Mims Jr.'s spot on the Broncos roster is likely safe due to his ability to contribute as a returner and a big-play gadget piece, his path to fantasy relevance may require a change in scenery. In dynasty formats, Mims Jr.'s stock is fading entering 2026.
