Calf injury concern and role fit doubts override contract logic.
Alec PierceWR
Injury concern and role uncertainty make Pierce a fade despite his $30 million per year contract with the Colts. Video evidence shows him walking with a slight limp, and more concerning, his left calf appeared 20% smaller than his right calf, suggesting potential calf strain or atrophy. There is a real chance Pierce isn't 100% in weeks 2–3 of the season. Additionally, he is expected to take on a new role as a more complete receiver, which the source doubts he can execute. The source explicitly states 'we're kind of out on Alec Pierce' and is more bullish on Josh Downs and Tyler Warren instead.

I I don't think so
