Pierce announced his retirement Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Pierce played eight seasons as a pro after Baltimore signed him as an undrafted free agent out of Samford in 2016. He earned a reputation as a stout run stopper and now finishes his career having played in 99 games, totaling 238 tackles (136 solo) and 9.5 sacks.
-
Pierce tallied 19 tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 11 regular-season appearances (one start) in 2024. He also had two passes defensed, including one interception. Pierce handled a consistent rotational role on defense for Baltimore when healthy, though a calf injury forced him to spend five games on IR. The 32-year-old veteran has one more year remaining in his deal with Baltimore.

Pierce (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants. Pierce will return to action after missing Baltimore's past five contests. The veteran nose tackle was playing in a rotational role prior to getting hurt, topping out at 42 percent of the Ravens' defensive snaps Week 7 against Tampa Bay.

Pierce (calf) was activated from injured reserve Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, but he remains questionable to suit up. Pierce missed five games in a row after suffering a calf injury in Week 8 against the Browns, but it seems he's ready to return to the gridiron. He's played in seven games this season, tallying 15 tackles (five solo), 1.0 sacks and one pass defended. If Pierce suits up Sunday, he'll add depth as a nose tackle behind Travis Jones.

Pierce (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports. Pierce will miss a fifth straight game due to a calf injury he suffered in Week 8 against the Browns. He was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, and although he finished the week strong with a full practice Friday, he hasn't progressed in his recovery enough to return for Sunday's contest. With the Ravens on a bye for Week 14, Pierce's next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Giants on Sunday, Dec. 15.
