Is in line for a bigger role, with coach Shane Steichen saying the staff is finding 'different ways to get him the ball' beyond the slot, including more snaps in 12 personnel two-WR sets. With Pierce banged up, his path to volume just widened. Kenneth Walker is bullish: 'This is the type of report that will move Down's stock. We know he has the talent. The question has always been can he find a way into playing in 2-WR sets. With minimal competition across from Pierce, Downs could find his way as a top-24 WR if this new role emerges.'
