Josh Downs Misses Practice With Soft-Tissue Injury

Wednesday, May 28, 10:24 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (undisclosed) and tight end Drew Ogletree (undisclosed) both miss Wednesday's voluntary practice with soft-tissue injuries. Downs has had his share of injuries already through two NFL seasons, so although it's early in the offseason, his health is worth watching closely the closer we get to training camp and the preseason. The 23-year-old former third-rounder (79th overall) in 2023 out of North Carolina took a small step forward in 2024 with a 72-803-5 line on 107 targets over 14 games (eight starts). A lot of his production last year came with veteran quarterback Joe Flacco under center, and his 5-foot-9, 171-pound frame limits his overall upside. Downs' 2025 fantasy value will likely hinge on who wins the Colts' QB competition between Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.

Keon Coleman Draws Praise for Offseason Work Ethic

Tuesday, May 27, 3:13 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman had a modest rookie season after being selected in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft. The Michigan State and Florida State product tallied 29 receptions on 57 targets for 556 yards and four scores. He ranked eighth among all NFL wideouts in average target distance (15.2), so he could develop into a legitimate deep threat for quarterback Josh Allen. So far this offseason, Coleman is drawing positive reviews. "When he came back, he was in really good shape," head coach Sean McDermott said. "You could tell he had been working drill-wise, weight room-wise, so really proud of what he's done to this point in the offseason." The sky is the limit for Coleman while catching passes from the reigning NFL MVP, and tight end Dalton Kincaid has not become Allen's go-to target as many expected when he was taken in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft. At Coleman's WR5 price in half-PPR setups, he presents potential strong value for fantasy football.
