2025 Fantasy Outlook
Pierce had a mini-breakout in 2024, leading all qualified receivers in yards per catch (22.3), yards per target (11.9) and aDOT (21.4), with each of those numbers rising for a second straight year. He scored on seven of his 39 catches, including three TDs of 40-plus yards, but he rarely saw shorter passes to complement the deep stuff and thus finished with less than five targets per game for a third time in three pro seasons. The 2022 second-round pick may be capable of using his 4.41 speed and big frame (6-3, 211) to succeed in shorter areas of the field, but the odds of finding out for sure in 2025 don't look good, as the Colts are bringing back fellow WRs Michael Pittman and Josh Downs while giving QB Anthony Richardson one last shot to win the starting job. Pierce is the one Indianapolis pass catcher that might actually benefit from Richardson's chaotic style of play, but it would likely still be in the form of sporadic spike weeks rather than steady volume.

Paces Colts' pass catchers
Pierce recorded four receptions on five targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.
ANALYSIS
The Colts distributed targets evenly among their pass catchers, but Pierce had the benefit of consistently working as a deep threat. All four of his receptions went for at least 18 yards, including a 19-yard touchdown catch midway through the second quarter -- his second of the season. Pierce has at least 70 receiving yards in four of his last six games and has emerged as one of Daniel Jones' most reliable pass catchers.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Pierce has averaged 554 yards and two touchdowns in his two years with the Colts. In each year, the quarterback play has been questionable. In his career, the receiver has been frequently used as a deep threat. That’s a role that Pierce could retain in 2024. However, the team drafted Adonai Mitchell, and if the rookie has a solid training camp, it may be a formality that Mitchell takes over the starting role and relegates Pierce to No. 4 receiver duties. If Pierce somehow holds onto the starting role and Anthony Richardson stays healthy, Pierce has the potential to build on his early-career numbers. Ultimately, it would seem that Mitchell will win the starting role at some point. As a result, Pierce may not be in position to see regular targets.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be staying in Indy
Pierce's impressive performance has made it more likely he re-signs with the Colts this offseason, Stephen Holder of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Coming into 2025, the Colts seemed willing to let the wideout sign elsewhere, viewing him as little more than a one-dimensional deep threat. Pierce has diversified his route tree this season, and as a result he's on pace to top 1,000 receiving yards for the first time in his career despite missing two games earlier this year due to a concussion. Indy also traded Adonai Mitchell to the Jets in the Sauce Gardner deal, giving the team less depth to replace Pierce if he leaves in free agency, and more incentive to bring him back.
