Alec Pierce is likely to return to practice this week, which would prepare him for the Indianapolis Colts' season opener against the Baltimore Ravens on September 13, 2026. Pierce, who had ankle surgery this offseason, has been out throughout the summer. His return would allow him to regain conditioning and timing with quarterback Daniel Jones before the game. Coach Shane Steichen has not guaranteed Pierce's full participation in the opener but his return to practice indicates a positive recovery trajectory. The Colts have reshaped their passing game, featuring Pierce prominently after trading Michael Pittman Jr.
