The Indianapolis Colts received a crucial initial sigh of relief during Sunday night’s Week 2 showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. Wide receiver Alec Pierce exited early in the contest with a left heel injury. The initial X-rays came back negative, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Further medical evaluations and imaging are slated for Monday to determine the full extent of the damage.

The scare unfolded during a non-contact moment in the first half. Pierce pulled up awkwardly while running a route, hopped off the turf unable to put weight on his left leg, and was examined in the medical tent before being carted to the locker room. Prior to his exit, he logged one reception for 11 yards.
