The Indianapolis Colts activate wide receiver Alec Pierce from the physically unable to perform list after he undergoes offseason ankle surgery and returns to practice. Yahoo Sports reports that Pierce gets back on the field on Thursday following the procedure and PUP designation.
The Winnipeg Free Press similarly reports that the team moves Pierce off the physically unable to perform list, describing the activation as tied to his ankle recovery. Both outlets frame the move as a Week 1-oriented milestone, indicating Pierce is working toward being available as the season begins.
While the details available in the excerpts are limited, the outlets align on the key point: Pierce is removed from the PUP list and resumes team practice after ankle surgery, with his status presented as part of the Colts’ planning for the upcoming regular-season opener.
