Josh Downs News: Two grabs in first game with Jones
Downs brought in two of three targets for 12 yards in the Colts' 33-8 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
As his final line indicates, Downs went through a very quiet afternoon in his first regular-season action with Daniel Jones as his quarterback. The dynamic third-year pro opened the season in the No. 2 role, but rookie tight end Tyler Warren, who drew a team-leading nine targets right out of the gate, is expected to cause a hit to Downs' opportunities over the course of the season. Additionally, No. 3 and No. 4 wideouts Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell accounted for another five looks from Jones, further clouding Downs' outlook heading into a Week 2 home showdown against a tough Broncos defense next Sunday.
