From the article

On a day the Colts played the struggling Commanders defense, without WRs Keenan Allen or Alex Pierce, Downs finished with a paltry three catches for 16 yards despite being the WR1 on paper. It's not necessarily a Downs problem, as quarterback Daniel Jones has thrown for just 611 yards through four games, but playing either Jones or Downs right now is going to be a problem for your lineup.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Downs managed only 3 catches for 16 yards; Jones' weak arm limits his ceiling.

Downs finished Week 4 with just three catches for 16 yards despite being the Colts' WR1 on paper, playing against the struggling Commanders defense without WRs Keenan Allen or Alex Pierce. The source attributes the issue partly to quarterback Daniel Jones, who has thrown for just 611 yards through four games. Both Jones and Downs are recommended to be benched in Week 5 vs. the Steelers.
