Colts' Alec Pierce ranked among NFL's most underrated receivers

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce has been recognized as one of the most underrated wide receivers heading into the 2026 NFL season. After a career year in which he surpassed 1,000 receiving yards and led the league in yards per reception, Pierce received a four-year, $114 million extension. Despite his achievements, he continues to be undervalued, with critiques of his contract and doubts about his status as a true No. 1 receiver. The absence of Michael Pittman Jr. opens up more targets for Pierce, who aims to build on his performance from last season. With a healthy quarterback Daniel Jones, Pierce could elevate his game even further this year.
