Alec Pierce exited the Colts' Sunday night game against the Chiefs with a heel injury, with reports indicating he was carried to the sideline medical tent and carted off the field. Pierce was initially listed as questionable to return before being downgraded to out for the remainder of the game.
Pierce underwent X-rays that came back negative, per Pro Football Talk, though he is scheduled for additional testing Monday. CBS Sports reported that Pierce had undergone offseason surgery on the same lower leg, adding potential concern about the injury's significance.
The injury is particularly notable given Pierce's status as the Colts' No. 1 receiver. Yahoo Sports reported that he led the NFL in yards per reception over each of the last two seasons and signed a four-year, $114 million contract with the team this offseason.
