Availability
Josh Downs hauled in 7-of-9 targets for 72 yards in Sunday night's 33-30 overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
The Colts needed Downs to step up on Sunday night, and he did just that, delivering a team-high 72 yards in a narrow loss to the Chiefs. He seems primed to improve as a fantasy option in the near future with Alec Pierce (heel) seemingly set to miss some time after aggravating an injury.
Josh Downs caught two of his four targets for 37 yards in the Colts' 41-23 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
Downs saw modest involvement in an underperforming Indianapolis passing attack, finishing third on the team in targets in the loss. The wideout remains one of the more risky pass-catchers entering a difficult Week 2 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Josh Downs (calf) is without an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Fantasy Impact
Downs is not listed on Indianapolis' injury report heading into Week 1, meaning that his calf injury is no longer an issue and that he should be at full health at this point. Indianapolis' distribution of targets should be something fantasy managers keep a close eye on this weekend, but the 25-year old isn't projected to be a strong fantasy asset on his own to start the season.
Josh Downs practiced on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Downs missed time last week with a calf issue. He is on track to be good to go for the season opener next week.
Josh Downs did not practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Downs missed practice for undisclosed reasons on Tuesday and it is now said to be a calf injury. He remains day-to-day.
