John Davis
@joohndavis · 3h This has me thinking about Daniel Jones return timeline. Tatum will have returned from an Achilles tear in 299 days. By opening NFL Sunday, it will have been 281 days since Jones tore his Achilles. Both are 28 years old. Colts banking on an even faster return than Tatum. |

@Colts_Law · 17h Alec Pierce's catch total, per year he's been with the #Colts: 2025: 47 (4th on team) 2024: 37 (3rd) 2023: 32 (3rd) 2022: 41 (3rd) Any other GM/HC seeing this: You don't want him that badly. 😂😇 |
Albert Breer
@AlbertBreer · 6h The Bills had sniffed around on AJ Brown and Alec Pierce, so they were actively looking for veteran receiver help. They wind up with DJ Moore, who'll be reunited with Joe Brady, his offensive coordinator in Carolina in 2020 and 2021. |
Derek Larger
@derek_larger · 10h Michael Pittman's best season was 2023: 109 receptions, 1,152 yards, 4 TD's Alec Pierce had 100 less yards than that in 2025, with 62 less receptions and 72 less targets!!!!!!!!!!!! Sure, Pittman makes more receptions most years than him, but Pierce does way more with less! |

The Pats are going to be coming hard for Pierce. If they get him, I will hate Ballard for the rest of my life! |

Pittman has played with a different QB every fuckin year and sent a message to the entire team by playing with a broken fuckin back. That’s why he’s a captain and a team leader. I’m not taking anything away from Pierces progression but I will not stand for Pittman bashing in the meantime |
Zach Hicks
@ZachHicks2 · 16m This would have less to do with the salary cap and more to do with finding different players for Anarumo’s system Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter · 19m The Colts are speaking with teams about a trade for their former Pro Bowl LB Zaire Franklin as they look to get under the salary cap by next week, per sources. Franklin led the NFL in tackles in 2024. |

...and for what it is worth, I already hate him for the rest of your life! |

SAUCE GARDNER
@iamSauceGardner · Mar 4 should I lock Alec Pierce in my basement and force him to sign the contract papers? |

Zach Hicks
@ZachHicks2 · 6m Bills pivoting to DJ Moore. Titans going after Wan’Dale Robinson. Patriots (I’m assuming) are aiming for AJ Brown. Wonder if all the Alec Pierce suitors are pivoting because they think Pierce stays in Indy (I’m hoping at least) |

I wouldn’t think it’s to much of a loss but for the fact that we have zero linebackers. |
Adam Schefter
@AdamSchefter · 38m Bears are releasing former Pro-Bowl LB Tremaine Edmunds, per sources. Edmunds has been a full-time starter in each of his eight NFL seasons, and he now will become a free agent with 900 tackles on his resume. |

Evan Sidery
@esidery · 1h Kyler Murray has interest in joining the Vikings or Colts as potential free agent destinations, per @AlbertBreer (https://si.com/nfl/albert-breer-mail...inline-text-43). Who Minnesota prioritizes between Daniel Jones, who can be signed off the transition tag, and Murray could determine which QB lands where. |

For the record, I think I’d choose Murray. |

Pierce is a deep threat and has only scratched the surface of his potential. Pittman is a drive extender. He keeps the chains moving and that is valuable. Not 29 million dollars valuable, so he either needs to have his contract tweaked or he needs to go. |
Quote:
But yea that injury makes me wonder if they can/should renegotiate or try to move him. |
Franchise tag amounts are based on the top 5 of the position. For wide receiver, that amount is 27 million. For next season MJP has a cap hit of 29 million.
That's 10% of the entire salary cap. Add in DJ and together they take up 22% of the entire cap. |

I'm sure most of you guys have seen it, but Maxx Crosby is going to the Ravens for the Ravens 2026 and 2027 1st rounders. Too bad we weren't able to get in on that.
Also, Ryan Kelly retired. So kudos to Ballard for proactively drafting a replacement and allowing Kelly to walk when we did. |
I don't want any midget QB on my team.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's all the Colts fault. AR certainly played his part as well, but IMO the Colts organization failed AR just as much as he failed them. And not just in his play development. Take his eye injury for example. Why didn't someone from the Colts staff have AR safely use a piece of exercise equipment designed to old resistance bands rather than allow him to use a makeshift setup in his locker? |

It makes him a much more attractive option, in my opinion. However, it’s highly unlikely the Colts are even interested, unless some team signs Jones to a massive contract, which isn’t going to happen. They tipped their hand when they tagged Jones over Pierce. They want Jones to be their quarterback. |
Evan Sidery
@esidery · 17h Alec Pierce is now forecasted to earn a three-year, $80+ million deal in free agency, per @espn . This figure would make Pierce the 13th-highest paid receiver in the NFL alongside George Pickens and Jameson Williams. Momentum is building around Pierce soon leaving the Colts. |
Jake Arthur
@JakeArthurNFL · 22h DJ Moore and (maybe) AJ Brown getting moved, and Kyler Murray and Geno Smith hitting the market, help make the landscape less needy for Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce. Colts could be getting some good luck there. |
Quote:
If the money is equal, Pierce would be crazy to stay here and play with the revolving door at quarterback when he could go play with Drake Maye. |
SleeperNFL
@SleeperNFL · 17h . @RomeovilleKid believes the Colts could pivot to signing Rashid Shaheed if Alec Pierce walks. |
Jebediah
@itsJebediah · Mar 6 Colts players likely on trade block and cap space gained if traded successfully. • Richardson (confirmed) +$5.4m • Franklin (confirmed) +$5.8m • Moore (pending) +$7.1m • Stewart (pending) +$12.2m • Buckner (pending) +$15.8m • Pittman (pending) +$24m Total Net: +$70.3m |

Destin Adams
@TheDestinAdams · Mar 6 Albert Breer shared that he's heard that Kyler Murray has interest in the Colts in free agency I know many are not a fan of the idea, but to be honest, I think the thought of Murray on the league minimum is very intriguing. |

Old Colt, I'm not necessarily asserting that there is not an NFL team that could possibly accommodate Pierce on his lofty expectations, but I couldn't resist a joke that actually had a certain amount of truth to it ...... Saskatchewan just won the Grey Cup, they have one of the best quarterbacks in the CFL, and it would indeed be a challenge for Pierce to find an NFL team that had a winning culture, an excellent quarterback, the room in their salary-cap budget to pay him the loads of money that he will probably be asking for on a long-term contract, and the willingness to give him that kind of money. ) ;) o |

Agree w/ you on your 2nd point as well. Unless someone outbids us for Jones then we won't be brining Murray in. |
