According to ESPN’s Stephen Holder, the Indianapolis Colts have had no ongoing contract negotiations with pending 2026 free agent wide receiver Alec Pierce:
“Even so, the rapidly increasing salaries of wide receivers will impact how the Colts govern themselves with Pierce,” writes Holder.
“According to two league sources, there are no current contract talks between Pierce and the team. Additionally, Colts receiver Michael Pittman Jr. is already the team’s highest-paid player in terms of average salary ($23.3 million).”
That being said, let me preface this by saying that this feels a lot different than the Colts’ lack of reported interest in engaging longtime veteran center Ryan Kelly’s representation last offseason for a potential multi-year contract extension.
