Josh Downs has been slumping. I'm not laying this at the feet of Downs. It's a Daniel Jones problem. Downs hasn't had more than 50 receiving yards in a game since Week 3. Over the last four games, Downs hasn't finished higher than WR41 in any game.

Downs slumping due to Jones; flex-viable with upside if Colts feature him.

Downs has been slumping due to Daniel Jones issues, not his own play. He hasn't exceeded 50 receiving yards since Week 3 and hasn't finished higher than WR41 in any game over the last four weeks. Since Week 4, he has a 13.4% target share, 0.86 YPRR, one red zone target, four deep targets, and 17% first-read share. Indy should feature him to drive his trade stock up, but flex-viable again this week.
