Josh Downs Sees 13 Total Targets In Week 12 Win

Josh Downs Sees 13 Total Targets In Week 12 Win

12 months ago

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Josh Downs reeled in five catches for 43 yards in the team's 27-20 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Despite only having five catches, Downs tied wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. with a team-high 13 targets. The rookie could have had a much better fantasy outing, but he dropped a number of passes while a few of the targets from quarterback Gardner Minshew were uncatchable. Although Downs' usage is encouraging, he doesn't quite have a safe enough floor to be a weekly starter. He does find himself in a favorable matchup in Week 13 when the Colts square off against the Tennessee Titans. Fantasy managers can look to include the former Tar Heel as a WR4/Flex option.
