Who Should I Start? Alec Pierce or Tre' Harris

Wednesday, October 8, 12:13 PM

Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen said that wide receiver Alec Pierce (concussion) will practice on Wednesday, according to James Boyd of The Athletic. Pierce has missed the last two games with a concussion, but he is trending in the right direction to make his return in Week 6 on Sunday versus the visiting Arizona Cardinals. It looked like Pierce was going to play last week in the win over the Las Vegas Raiders after he was a full-go in practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but he had a setback on Friday and was not cleared from the NFL's concussion protocol. If he can avoid a setback this week, Pierce could be active as Indy's WR3 next to Michael Pittman Jr. and Josh Downs. The 25-year-old has nine catches on 13 targets for 171 yards and no touchdowns in his three games this year. If Pierce is active, he'll be in play as a WR4/flex in deeper fantasy leagues against the Cards.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris was more involved in Week 2, catching two passes for 34 yards on three targets in Monday night's win against the Las Vegas Raiders. He increased his snap share from 7.9% to 30.4% and ran eight routes (27.6% of snaps). The rookie will face a tough Denver Broncos secondary, so Harris will need to make the most of his limited opportunities. Ladd McConkey (bicep) is off the injury report, but if there are setbacks between now and game time, Harris could get the start in three-receiver sets. RotoBaller projects him as WR106, and he should continue to be a valuable stash in most formats.
