Colts Rule Alec Pierce Out for Week 5 vs. Raiders After Concussion Setback

Shane Steichen said Pierce reported symptoms following Thursday's session, preventing medical clearance.

Overview

  • Pierce practiced fully on Wednesday and Thursday before being listed as a non-participant on Friday.
  • Steichen confirmed Pierce will miss Sunday's game against Las Vegas and be out at least one more contest.
  • The receiver sustained the concussion in Week 3 at Tennessee and already missed the Rams game.
  • Coaches are assessing whether rookie Adonai Mitchell will see increased snaps, with no commitment on his usage.
  • If Mitchell is not elevated into the role, Ashton Dulin is identified as the next option at wide receiver.
