Josh Downs Has Become A Volume Target
1 year agoIndianapolis Colts wide receivers Michael Pittman Jr. and Alec Pierce are the team's top receivers, but rookie Josh Downs, an undersized yet shifty wideout out of North Carolina, brings a different feel to the receiving corps that has allowed him to become a volume target throughout training camp and the preseason, according to The Athletic's James Boyd. Fantasy managers can expect a lot of chain-moving throws in Downs' direction with rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson running the offense this year. Boyd says not to sleep on Downs in fantasy drafts this fall. The 22-year-old is going to go undrafted in most redraft leagues, but he legitimately has the chance to develop into Richardson's No. 2 target in 2023 behind Pittman. Don't forget his name.
