## Resource

Colts’ Alec Pierce is back practicing, a major boost ahead of the Chiefs game — though his heel injury still demands caution. He sat out Thursday’s session after being a full participant earlier in the week, and while he played 60% of snaps in Week 1, the team plans to ramp up his workload. Coach Steichen will clarify his status post-practice today — Pierce’s return is critical for Indy’s offense against a tough KC defense.
