Colts WR Josh Downs (hip) is off the final injury report. He was sidelined on Wednesday but put in full practices on Thursday and Friday. Downs will be in his usual slot role in this weekend’s potential shootout vs. the Steelers.

Colts WR Josh Downs (hip) returned to a full practice on Thursday. It looks like he'll be ready to go for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers. Downs, still only playing in three-WR sets, remains stuck in WR4 territory.

Colts WR Josh Downs (hip) did not practice on Wednesday. It's a new injury for Downs, and we don't have any other details. We'll keep tabs on his status leading up to Sunday's game vs. the Steelers. Downs' absence would leave targets behind for WRs Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce and TE Tyler Warren.

Colts WR Michael Pittman Jr. grabbed 8 receptions or 95 yards and a TD in Sunday's win over the Titans. It marked the first time he has caught 7+ passes in consecutive games since 2023. Pittman's TD also gives him six for the season, matching his career high from 2021. Pittman now leads these Colts in targets and receptions by six apiece. He still trails TE Tyler Warren in receiving yards. But both sit well ahead of the rest of the crew in all three categories. Warren posted a 4-53 receiving line against the Titans on five targets, trailing Pittman's lead by four. WR Josh Downs went 3-39-1 receiving on three targets. WR Alec Pierce caught two balls for 69 yards among five targets.

Colts WR Josh Downs (concussion) practiced all week and is off the final injury report. He’ll be back in his usual No. 3 WR, slot role for Sunday’s game vs. the Titans. The Colts are 14.5-point favorites with a 31-point implied total in that one. That gives Downs elevated TD upside, but we’re unlikely to get big volume.

Colts WR Josh Downs (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. He has a good chance to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Titans, but we'll keep you updated on his progress through the protocol over the next few days.

Colts WRs Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) are out for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce will continue to operate as the top two WRs, but the Colts might now be forced to rely on WR Adonai Mitchell in a significant role. Anthony Gould is the only other WR on the active roster. Laquon Treadwell is on the practice squad.

Colts WR Josh Downs is in the concussion protocol and did not practice on Wednesday. He never left last week's game but must have started having symptoms afterward. Downs is now unlikely to play vs. the Chargers on Sunday. WR Ashton Dulin also missed Wednesday's practice with a chest injury. If he and Downs miss Week 7, the Colts would likely be forced to rely on WR Adonai Mitchell, who's been banished to the bench since dropping the ball at the goal line back in Week 4. Michael Pittman is the only Colts WR that belongs in fantasy lineups this week.

We learned ahead of Sunday's game that Colts WR Adonai Mitchell would play a limited role against the Raiders after marring his Week 4 opportunity with multiple stupid mistakes. That proved true, as Mitchell played just six snaps and ran two routes against the Raiders. He ranked fifth in playing time among Colts WRs, even with Alex Pierce still out. Ashton Dulin got the group's biggest boost, matching Michael Pittman Jr.'s team-high 27 routes, according to Pro Football Focus. Josh Downs trailed narrowly at 23 routes.

Colts WR Adonai Mitchell will play but have a "limited role" against the Raiders today, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Mitchell was a full-timer with WR Alec Pierce out last week, but he fumbled as he was going into the end zone and committed a holding penalty that negated a long Jonathan Taylor TD run. So his role will be scaled back today. Fowler adds that WR Ashton Dulin could see more work. And could we actually see WR Josh Downs play in some two-WR sets? We'll believe it when we see it, but the Mitchell situation adds some upside to Downs' Week 5 profile.

Colts WR Michael Pittman was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a hamstring. That likely means he hurt the hammy today -- and puts his status for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders in question. Indianapolis is getting WR Alec Pierce back from his concussion this week. Pittman would typically be replaced by WR Adonai Mitchell, but Mitchell gave up the ball at the goal line and committed a costly holding penalty last week. It's unclear if the Colts would go back to him in a full-time role. The other options would be WR Ashton Dulin -- or using WR Josh Downs in 2-WR sets. We'll update Pittman's status tomorrow.

Colts WR Josh Downs (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 3 injury report. He was sidelined on Wednesday but put in full practices on Thursday and Friday. Downs has eight catches on 11 targets and underwhelming playing time through two weeks. But he’d be a more interesting play in PPR leagues if TE Tyler Warren’s toe injury keeps him out of Sunday’s game vs. the Titans.

Colts WR Josh Downs (ankle) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He'll be good to go for this weekend's game vs. the Titans. Downs' route rate has been too low through two weeks to trust him as a fantasy option, although that could change if TE Tyler Warren's toe injury forced him out.

Colts WR Josh Downs (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. We don't have any other details on his status. Downs has run a route on just 56% of Colts pass plays through two weeks, leaving him as an unreliable fantasy option even when healthy.

Colts WR Josh Downs is not listed on the Week 1 injury report. He hurt a hamstring in mid-August but will be a full-go for Sunday's opener vs. the Dolphins. Downs has an excellent individual matchup in the slot vs. fifth-round rookie CB Jason Marshall Jr.
