Availability
Josh Downs caught 4-of-4 targets for 61 yards in the Colts 38-30 loss against the Texans.
Fantasy Impact
Downs was second in receiving on the day with Riley Leonard behind center for the Colts. He is set to head into the final year of his rookie contract next season.
Josh Downs caught 2-of-5 targets for 34 yards in the Colts 23-17 loss against the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
Downs tied all Colts wide receivers and tight ends in targets. He'll be a WR3/WR4 Week 18 against the Texans.
Josh Downs hauled in 5 of 9 targets for 65 yards in Monday's loss to the 49ers.
Fantasy Impact
Downs set a new season high in yards Monday and finished with more receptions than he's had in a single game since Week 9. The third-year receiver did not do much in his first game with formerly retired QB Philip Rivers at the helm of the offense, but Downs stepped up the second time around, putting himself back on the radar in deeper PPR formats.
Josh Downs logged a full practice on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Downs had missed practice on Thursday due to personal reasons. He should be good to go for Monday's game against the 49ers as a WR3/WR4 for fantasy managers.
Josh Downs (personal) did not practice for the Colts on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Downs was not present for Indianapolis' first practice of the week on Thursday. He's tending to a personal issue of some kind, although it seems likely that he will be back in time for Monday's game. He isn't a reliable week-to-week fantasy option at this point in the season.
