Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (hamstring) is not on the team's initial injury report. This is an excellent sign as the wideout was battling a hamstring injury throughout most of August. However, seeing him practice in full on Wednesday should put him in an excellent position to be at full strength in their season opener on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the week in case he faces a setback. Last season, despite playing with subpar QB play, Downs flashed immense upside as he averaged 13.1 PPR points per game across 14 contests. During this stretch, Downs tallied 57.4 yards per game and scored five touchdowns. With Daniel Jones slated to serve as the QB1 in Indianapolis, Downs possesses high-end WR3 upside facing the Dolphins.

In breaking down his predictions for the 2025 season, Jacksonville Jaguars beat writer John Shipley believes that first-round pick Travis Hunter will play close to 80% of his team's offensive snaps and 60-70% on defense. Hunter's unique talents have been on display throughout his college career, pre-draft process, and training camp. The largest question mark on him has been about his usage as he begins his NFL career. Arguably the most talented rookie in this year's class, the Jaguars paid a heavy price on draft night to move up three spots and select him with the number two overall pick. Listed on the team's unofficial depth chart as a starting receiver and backup cornerback, these predicted snap totals suggest that Hunter could feature prominently in the Jaguars' passing attack. Should he find himself on the field for the majority of passing downs, Hunter could pay early dividends to those who were brave enough to draft him.
Still trying to decide between Downs and Hunter? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Josh Downs is projected to score 9.3 points this week while Travis Hunter is projected to score 15.5 points.
