Set to return Sunday Coach Shane Steichen said Friday that Downs has cleared concussion protocol and will play Sunday against the Titans, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.
Impact The wideout was trending in the right direction after practicing fully Thursday, and with Downs past the concussion that sidelined him in Week 7, he'll reclaim his role in a Colts' WR corps that also features Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce. In six games prior to his concussion, Downs compiled a 26/217/1 receiving line on 34 targets, a pace that has given the 2023 third-rounder a degree of fantasy utility in deeper formats and makes him a lineup option for those in need of WR help with six teams on bye this week.

Practices fully Thursday Downs (concussion) practiced fully Thursday.
Impact After returning to a limited practice Wednesday, Downs -- who was inactive Week 7 -- upgraded to full participation a day later, while shedding his non-contact jersey in the process, per James Boyd of The Athletic. Friday's injury report will reveal whether Downs carries an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, or is fully cleared to reclaim his role in a Colts WR corps that also features Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.

Colts chasing 4th straight win and another sweep of Titans in hopes of keeping league's best record

The Indianapolis Colts enter Week 8 with the NFL's best record, 6-1, and a two-game lead in the AFC South
OCTOBER 23, 2025 • Associated Press
Limited in return to practice Downs (concussion) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Impact Downs didn't practice last week before being ruled out ahead of this past Sunday's 38-24 win over the Chargers. With a return to practice, albeit in a limited capacity, the wideout is trending in the right direction as this weekend's game against the Titans approaches. Also making strides toward a return to action in Week 8 is fellow WR Ashton Dulin (chest), who practiced fully Wednesday.

Will Josh Downs play in Week 7 vs. Chargers? Latest injury update on Colts WR Will Colts' WR Josh Downs play in Week 7 against the Chargers? Here's the latest injury update.
OCTOBER 17, 2025 • USATODAY.COM
Won't play Sunday Downs (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Impact The same applies to Ashton Dulin (chest), a context that results in Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce being slated to lead the Colts' Week 7 WR corps, with Adonai Mitchell on track to be active and contribute Sunday, while Anthony Gould is also available to mix in. Additionally, Laquon Treadwell and Coleman Owen represent possible practice squad elevations.
OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Still not practicing Downs (concussion) isn't practicing Friday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Impact Downs didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday either, so his apparent non-participation Friday doesn't bode well for his chances of being cleared to play Sunday against the Chargers. The Colts' upcoming injury report will reveal whether Downs has a chance to play this weekend or is ruled out ahead of Week 7 action.

Colts return to site of only loss this season looking to knock off Chargers

The Los Angeles Chargers host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday as two of the AFC's early upstarts face off
OCTOBER 16, 2025 • Associated Press
Still not practicing Downs (concussion) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Impact Downs didn't practice Wednesday either, so what (if anything) the wideout is able to do Friday will loom large in terms of his Week 7 status. With Ashton Dulin (chest) also having missed back-to-back sessions, Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, Adonai Mitchell and Anthony Gould are currently the Colts' healthy options at the WR position.
OCTOBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
In concussion protocol Downs (concussion) didn't practice Wednesday.
Impact With Downs in the NFL's concussion protocol, perStephen Holder of ESPN.com, the wideout's status will need to be tracked ahead of this weekend's game against the Chargers. In this past Sunday's 31-27 win over the Cardinals, Downs logged a 51 percent snap share, while catching six of his seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown. If he's limited or out versus Los Angles, Ashton Dulin (chest) -- if available -- Adonai Mitchell and Anthony Gould would be candidates for added snaps alongside fellow WRs Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.
