Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs was quiet in his team's 41-20 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 3. Downs caught just two of his three targets for 34 yards to finish fourth on the team in receiving. Through three weeks with Daniel Jones under center, Downs appears to have taken a backseat to Michael Pittman Jr. as the No. 1 receiver in the Indy passing attack. The veteran slot receiver will look to bounce back in Week 4's road matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, but he's settling in as a WR5 in fantasy after a pedestrian start to the season.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that injuries at wide receiver and/or cornerback won't affect rookie two-way star Travis Hunter's usage. Right now, Hunter is playing just one position at receiver and one at cornerback, although he will build more versatility in years to come. When Dyami Brown (shoulder) was injured in the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans, Parker Washington played more instead of Hunter. The Heisman Trophy winner has played out of the slot for 63 percent of his routes through his first three NFL games, and he's caught 10 of his 16 targets for 76 scoreless yards. The 22-year-old had just one catch on two targets for 21 yards last week and was more involved on defense than ever before, which is not what his fantasy managers want to see. It sounds like Hunter's role on offense won't necessarily increase if Brown cannot play in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.
