Downs is a reliable target for Patrick Mahomes. Downs has struggled fantasy-wise with the Indianapolis Colts this season, averaging just 8.3 fantasy PPG. He certainly gets a QB and an offensive upgrade, but he will have more target competition in Kansas City.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Downs lands in Chiefs offense with Mahomes; upside as third target once settled.

Downs traded to Kansas City Chiefs from Indianapolis Colts; gets significant QB and offensive upgrade with Patrick Mahomes. Averaged just 8.3 fantasy PPG with Colts but has split time evenly between wide and slot, providing versatility for Chiefs formations. Expected to play in two-receiver sets over Xavier Worthy once acclimated, likely serving as third target behind Travis Kelce and Rashee Rice; with Rice struggling, Downs could earn more opportunities.
