Pierce is a vertical outside receiver who is sudden off the line of scrimmage, including against press-man coverage. He led the NFL in yards per reception at 21.3, and 32 of his 47 catches went for explosive gains. He uses long strides to create space and has elite ball tracking, especially outside the numbers in contested-catch situations. Pierce has the leaping ability and body control to play above the rim. He has a second gear on vertical routes to create separation in the deep part of the field, and he will run past flat-footed corners who are playing off coverage.
In 2025, he showed more capability in intermediate areas, setting a career high with 441 receiving yards between the numbers. Pierce’s speed and vertical ability can create sizable cushions both pre-snap and during the down. He takes advantage of these cushions by snapping off intermediate routes, though he is not always a deceptive route runner in these areas.
