Downs is elite slot separator with proven outside versatility despite small frame.

Fourth-year slot receiver with 228 career catches and 12 TDs across three-plus seasons; 2026 snap splits show 69.6% slot, 30.0% wide, with highest regular-season slot rate of 84.5% in 2024. Despite 5'9", 171-pound frame, has proven capable on the outside thanks to shiftiness beating press coverage from longer corners.
