Josh Downs Practicing On Wednesday

Josh Downs Practicing On Wednesday

12 months ago

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Josh Downs (knee) was on the practice field on Wednesday coming off the team's bye week. Downs has been battling a nagging knee injury since back in the spring. It has forced him to miss some practice time recently after aggravating it, but the 22-year-old hasn't missed any games. Downs didn't practice at all leading up to the Week 10 game in Germany against the New England Patriots, but he suited up and caught two passes for 40 yards. It's a good sign that he's practicing to begin Week 12 preparations, so barring a setback later this week, he should be ready to play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a great matchup. As the No. 2 behind Michael Pittman Jr., Downs is a worthwhile WR4/flex consideration when he's healthy.
