Alec Pierce is remaining in Indianapolis despite speculation that he would land elsewhere in free agency. The wide receiver agreed to a four-year, $116 million deal with the Colts on Monday, Pat McAfee shared on his show. Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breet confirmed the news and deal.
Pierce was projected to earn “at least” $27 million per season, and now he hit the $29 million annual mark. Here’s how that amount ranks compared to other receivers claimed in free agency. According to Over the Cap, this annual salary puts Pierce ninth in the league across wide receivers right now (Ja’Marr Chase is the highest-paid receiver with a $40.25 million annual income).
