BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs should be viewed as a WR2 with upside heading into his Week 12 matchup against a weak Detroit Lions secondary.
Last weekend, with Anthony Richardson back under center, the sophomore wideout caught all five of his targets for 84 yards a score. This was his best fantasy output since Week 8.
Josh Downs is still really good. 🔥

Over his past four contests, Downs has averaged a solid 17.0 PPR points per game with 81.3 yards and 5.5 receptions per game. During this stretch, Downs faced two top-10 secondaries.
This weekend, he will face a Detroit secondary allowing the fourth-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season. Given Anthony Richardson's solid bounce-back showing this past Sunday, Downs should be in a good position to succeed and should be started in all formats as a high-end WR2.
