Josh Downs was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice on October 14th, battling a hamstring issue that’s definitely got the Indianapolis Colts watching closely.
Hammy Hints and Week 6 Worries
Now, the official word is there’s no indication Downs is in danger of missing the Week 6 game. But let’s be real, a hamstring tweak is never “nothing,” right? They’re telling us to keep an eye on his practice status moving forward, and you know that’s code for “this could turn into something.” You just don’t want to see this kind of news for any player, especially when they’re trying to find their rhythm.
From Promising to Quiet: What’s Happening?
This injury comes at a tough time for Downs, who started the season hot. He crushed it with over 70 receiving yards in two of those first three games, showing some real flashes. But then, it’s been radio silence in his last two outings. Total crickets. When you’re already projected as a WR4 at best, going quiet and then adding a hamstring issue to the mix just isn’t what you want to see. It’s a frustrating trend, no doubt.
We’re all gonna be waiting for those next practice reports. Can Downs shake off this hammy, or is this a sign his quiet streak is gonna stretch out even longer?
