Colts wide receiver Josh Downs is set to return in Week 3 against the Bears after recovering from a high-ankle sprain sustained in early August. He practiced fully on Wednesday and expressed readiness to support quarterback Anthony Richardson, who has struggled without him. Downs missed the first two games of the season but was a 50-50 decision to play in Week 2 before being held out for precautionary reasons. His return is crucial for the Colts' passing game, which has lacked efficiency in his absence, particularly with Richardson's completion rate at just 49%. Downs will join Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce, and Adonai Mitchell in the receiving corps, potentially impacting their snap counts. Overall, Downs aims to contribute immediately and enhance the Colts' offensive performance.
