Downs caught three of five targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks. Downs caught Philip Rivers' first touchdown pass following a five-year layoff on an eight-yard connection in the second quarter. Outside of scoring the only touchdown for either team, Downs had another quiet performance as Rivers threw for only 120 yards. Following Daniel Jones' season-ending Achilles injury, the Colts' passing game has lost most of its fantasy appeal heading into a MNF home game against the 49ers on Dec. 22.

Downs caught four of five targets for 23 yards during the Colts' 36-19 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday. Downs' four catches were his most since Week 9 against the Steelers, and he finished third in both catches and receiving yards behind Alec Pierce (five catches for 80 yards) and Michael Pittman (nine catches for 79 yards). Downs has just eight receptions (on 17 targets) over his last three games, and his fantasy floor figures to be lower for the rest of the season after Daniel Jones tore his right Achilles during the first quarter of Sunday's loss. With Anthony Richardson (eye) on injured reserve and no timeline for a return, the Colts will turn to rookie sixth-rounder Riley Leonard for the home stretch of the 2025 regular season, starting with a Week 15 road clash against the Seahawks on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Downs (hip/knee) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's practice estimate. With Downs logging a DNP in Wednesday's walk-through as he contends with hip and knee issues, the wideout's status is now worth monitoring as Sunday's game against the Jaguars approaches. In each of his last two games, Downs has caught two of his six targets for a combined total of 54 yards in that span.

Downs caught two of six targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans. Downs was limited to two or fewer catches for a third straight week, though he did lead the team in targets versus Houston. The wide receiver has now reeled in five of 14 targets for 57 yards without finding the end zone over the last three games. Downs hasn't exceeded 57 receiving yards in any of the 11 contests he's played in this year, limiting his ceiling greatly from a fantasy perspective.

Downs had a down game in Week 10 against Atlanta with one catch for 3 yards on two targets. But prior to that he had scored at least 11.4 PPR points in four games in a row, with three touchdowns over that span, and he had three outings over that stretch with at least seven targets. He should be viewed as the third-best Fantasy receiver on the Colts behind Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce, and obviously Tyler Warren is a huge factor in the passing game as well. But Downs can still be a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in the majority of leagues, and he's worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.
