From the article

He hit a 30% target share in Week 3, coupled with a 61.8% air yards share, good for the second-highest total among receivers that week. Downs is unlikely to ever be a dominant red-zone player, but touchdowns will come with this kind of usage.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Downs' 30% target share and 61.8% air yards share signal imminent breakout.

Downs is consistently trending upward despite not posting a true breakout performance yet. In Week 3 against the Texans' stingy defense, he notched five grabs on 11 targets for 77 yards with a career-high 172 air yards. His 30% target share and 61.8% air yards share (second-highest among receivers that week) indicate a larger role every week. While he's unlikely to be a dominant red-zone player, touchdowns will come with this kind of usage, making him a good bet to buy before his breakout.
