Josh Downs in the Concussion Protocol
Josh Downs (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol this week, according to Stephen Holder of ESPN. Fellow wideout Ashton Dulin (chest) also missed practice on Wednesday with a chest injury. Downs had a strong game in the Week 6 win over the Arizona Cardinals, catching six of his seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown, but he could be forced to miss a Week 7 contest on the road against the Los Angeles Chargers unless he's cleared from the concussion protocol later this week. If Downs is unavailable this weekend, Adonai Mitchell could be active once again as WR depth after being a healthy scratch last Sunday. Alec Pierce would be elevated to the WR2 role behind Michael Pittman Jr. and would be in play as a WR4/flex in fantasy lineups. In the last two games, Downs has come on strong, catching 12 total passes (15 targets) for 96 yards and a score.
