Downs' slot role and 21% target share offer flex value despite tough Houston matchup.

Josh Downs ranks WR36 in fantasy points per game while finishing as WR20 in weekly scoring last week. He has a 21% target share, 1.91 YPRR, two red zone targets, one deep target, and a 29.5% first-read share. Downs is a full-time player with an 85.1% route share despite running 78.9% of his routes from the slot. He faces a tougher matchup on the inside this week against Houston, which has allowed the seventh-fewest yards per target and fantasy points per opportunity to slot receivers, but remains a volume-based flex play.
