Daniel Jones confident in Colts' ability to stay explosive without Pierce

Colts quarterback Daniel Jones expressed confidence in the team's ability to generate explosive plays during Alec Pierce's absence. Pierce has been placed on injured reserve after aggravating a heel injury and will miss at least four games. Jones noted that coaches can create matchups to maintain the offense's vertical threat. In their recent win over Houston, Jones completed 24 of 36 passes for 235 yards, showcasing the team's capability to adapt without Pierce. The addition of Darius Slayton may also bolster the receiving corps while Pierce recovers.
