Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce reportedly receives a second platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection for his left ankle injury during his rehabilitation process. One report says the team is not viewing the update as a setback, while also noting it raises questions from a pain-management perspective.
The Athletic reports that Pierce’s second PRP injection occurs in June, about three months after he undergoes left ankle surgery. Yahoo Sports reports that he has not appeared on the practice field in 2026 and describes the injection as intended to speed healing. Together, the outlets frame the additional procedure as part of ongoing recovery, with differing emphasis on whether the timing reflects progress or a more nuanced concern regarding his ankle response to treatment.
