Colts Secure Top Deep Threat: Alec Pierce Signs $160M Extension
The Indianapolis Colts have secured their top deep threat, Alec Pierce, with a four-year, $160 million contract extension. This deal averages $29 million per year and came just before the leagues tampering period opened. Pierce, a soon-to-be free agent, was drawing strong interest from other teams. The Colts may have stretched a bit on the price, but it secures their top deep threat without risking a compensatory draft pick later. Pierce, a 25-year-old standout, led the league in yards per catch for the second straight year and hauled in 47 receptions for 1,300 yards and 6 touchdowns last season. His ability to stretch the field, high-point passes, and make acrobatic grabs under contact are tough to replace. With Pierce staying put, attention now turns to finalizing an extension for Daniel Jones to boost the offense long-term.
