Colts' Jones-Pierce Deal Under Fire | Indianapolis Colts News

The Colts pulled off a bold offseason move by locking down QB Daniel Jones and WR Alec Pierce—despite the financial gymnastics and the loss of Michael Pittman Jr. Jones got a two-year, $88M deal, while Pierce signed a four-year, $114M contract with $60M guaranteed. ESPN’s Seth Walder called the Jones tagging strategy questionable, arguing it forced a bloated Pierce deal. Had they tagged Pierce instead, they could’ve let him prove himself before committing big. While the moves kept their core intact, the long-term value of Pierce’s massive contract remains a gamble—potentially a costly overpay… or a smart bet on a rising star.
