WR Josh Downs put up 7-72-0 while leading the team in targets (nine) and air yards (67%). He was quiet in Week 1 after a strong opening drive, but his workload shares for 2026 look strong now, and he helped Indy stay in the game at Arrowhead on Sunday.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Downs' 9 targets and 30% target share make him Indy's clear No. 1 with Pierce sidelined.

With Alec Pierce's early exit, Downs became the unquestioned No. 1 receiver for Indianapolis and responded with 7-72-0 on a team-high nine targets (30% target share, 67% air yard share). The source notes his workload shares for 2026 look strong now, and he helped Indy stay in the game at Arrowhead on Sunday. Pierce's re-injury opens the door for Downs to cement a starting role in fantasy leagues.
