Week 1 of the 2023 NFL season is in the books, and the waiver wire is as plentiful as it will be all season. There were surprise breakouts and unexpected busts in the opening week of the regular season, meaning a ton of players entered the fantasy radar, while others fell off of it.The top waiver wire adds are often obvious for traditional 10 and 12-team leagues, but a larger pool of players is in consideration in leagues of 14 people or more. Some of theseWeek 2 deeper-league waiver ...

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs has done enough to earn himself a starting spot ahead of the Week1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The rookie wideout has looked good in camp and will open the season as the starting slot receiver. The Colts have high hopes for Downs after selecting him in the third-round of this year's draft. However, there could be a learning curve for this offense with rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson under center. Downs won't be an ideal streaming ...

If you are one of the many fantasy football general managers with no idea who Josh Downs is, what position he plays, and which NFL team he is on, you are not alone. When I chose to do this column, I thought it was about Arizona Cardinals quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Then I thought Downs must have been a long snapper on the CFL's Hamilton Tiger Cats.I quickly discovered (and so will the fantasy football world) that Downs is the 2023 third-round draft pick of the Indianapolis Colts and that he will ...

The Indianapolis Star's Nate Atkins thinks that we'll see a steady dose of Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Josh Downs in the Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Without running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) and tight end Jelani Woods (hamstring) to start the season, Adkins thinks the Colts need to hit some singles and doubles in their offense. The 22-year-old Downs will open the year as Indy's starting slot receiver over Isaiah McKenzie and could be a safety blanket for ...

Indianapolis Colts rookie wide receiver Josh Downs is listed as the team's starting slot receiver on their first unofficial depth chart entering the 2023 regular season. Downs will open his first NFL campaign as the starting slot receiver for the Colts after beating out Isaiah McKenzie for the role.
