The Colts wrapped Day 12 of training camp at Grand Park amid late-summer heat, turning injury news into the headline story. Alec Pierce left the practice after a brief return, then exited again, complicating Indianapolis’ path to a reliable Week 1 pass game. Kenny Moore II suffered a right knee issue, further thinning a secondary that’s already dealing with bumps and bruises. Yet the session still flashed some offensive upside as the QB competition showed life, even if consistency remains elusive for the finalists.
Overall notes pointed to an uptick in players getting looks and the team leaning on depth as the injury wave grows. With Pierce hobbled, other receivers and playmakers will be tested early, and the coaching staff will monitor health closely heading into preseason. The Colts’ Day 12 takeaway: high tempo, hot weather, and a roster-wide push to establish rhythm while managing a growing injury list.
Fantasy watchers should track Pierce’s health and how the QB competition translates into target distribution as camp continues. Even with Pierce limited, the Colts still could push for production from other skill players, but the margin for error is tighter if the wideout can’t stay on the field. The storyline remains clear: depth will be tested, and fantasy angles hinge on who steps up when the competition heats up.
