Alec Pierce Set to Command Significant Contract as Top Deep Threat

Alec Pierce is poised to become a highly sought-after free agent, recognized as one of the NFL's premier deep-ball threats. He leads the league in yards per target and explosive reception rate, having surpassed 1,000 yards in 2025 on only 47 catches. Pierce is projected to command a substantial contract, with the Patriots considered a potential landing spot to pair him with Drake Maye. His ability could net him over $25 million per year.
