On April 20, Indianapolis Colts GM Chris Ballard dropped the latest injury updates in his pre-draft presser, starting with wide receiver Alec Pierce, heading for ankle clean-up surgery that keeps him out until training camp. This means Pierce joins quarterback Daniel Jones with his Achilles issue and defensive tackle de Forest Buckner, nursing a neck problem, all three, rehabbing through the summer. Pierce dealt with that ankle pain all last season but pushed through, and now this fix ensures he's at peak for the long haul after signing the, which is free agent wide receiver deal ever, a four year $114 million contract off his breakout year with over $1,000, yards and league leading yards per catch. The moves things a bit missing, organized team activities, but it's smart prevention since Jones is out too, minimizing the hit on summer prep. Meanwhile, Jones is throwing and moving strong, eyeing week one, Buckner starts plials for a training camp return, kicker Spencer Schrader's back, post ACL, nailing 54 yarders at six

months, and defensive backs Hunter Waller and Justin Wally rap rehab for most of OTAs. Colts stay optimistic on full recoveries ahead.
