Alec Pierce will miss the first three weeks of the season due to ankle surgery. Pierce's injury and Michael Pittman joining Pittsburgh, Downs is likely one of the top two options for the first half of the season.
Who will be targeting Colts receivers to begin the year? That's the most important question. Daniel Jones has some latent issues throwing into the middle of the field against umbrella coverage.
Anthony Richardson has been aggressive and some of his best plays were seam shots to Downs in the vertical game. Riley Leonard is unproven.
There has been a lot of public buzz that Downs is more than a short-area slot receiver. If Pierce is slow to recover, this will be the year to find out if that's true or if it's misplaced hype along the lines of Jamison Crowder, a former slot from Duke who earned similar acclaim that never materialized.

He's the unquestionable WR2 for the Colts, but can that offense make him anything more than a fantasy WR4? Upside is yes, and that outweighs the downside of being relegated to a WR3 role if he disappoints in 2026.
