JSN's role expansion yielded 3.62 YPRR and 21.2 PPR FP/G; potential comp for Downs.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba is used as a comparable for Josh Downs' potential production gains from an expanded role. JSN had an 83% slot rate and averaged 14.9 PPR FP/G in 2024, then Seattle moved him around more in 2025 and he jumped to 3.62 YPRR and 21.2 PPR FP/G. The source's research indicates that getting out of a slot-only role can be a massive unlock, and Downs could see similar gains if the Colts expand his role beyond the slot.
