Colts' Josh Downs: Logs limited practice
Downs (ankle) was limited at practice Wednesday.
Downs, who continues to progress in his recovery from a high-ankle sprain that he sustained Aug. 7, noted per James Boyd of The Athletic, the he felt "70 percent" last week and is now feeling in the "80-90 percent" range.

Colts' Josh Downs: Set for limited practice
Downs (ankle) is slated to be a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Downs is working his way back from a high-ankle sprain that he sustained Aug. 7 and continues to make progress, with his looming practice participation representing a key step toward potentially returning to action this weekend versus the Packers. In the Colts' Week 1 loss to the Texans, Alec Pierce and Adonai Mitchell saw added snaps behind top option Michael Pittman.

Colts' Josh Downs: Being monitored for Week 2
Coach Shane Steichen said Monday the Colts will monitor Downs (ankle) heading into the team's Week 2 road matchup against the Packers, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.
Downs was held out of Indianapolis' 29-27 loss to the Texans on Sunday, but it sounds like he could have a chance to return Week 2 at Green Bay. With Downs sidelined, Alec Pierce was able to translate his increased opportunities into a huge impact, securing all three of his targets for 125 yards and a touchdown. Even if Downs is healthy Week 2, Pierce's impressive performance leaves the Colts with a crowded wide receiver room, with Michael Pittman atop the depth chart and rookie second-round pick Adonai Mitchell having drawn five targets Week 1.

Colts' Josh Downs: Working off to the side
Though Downs (ankle) wasn't participating in practice Friday, James Boyd of The Athletic notes that the wideout was doing individual movement drills off to the side.
If Downs officially goes down as a DNP for the third straight practice, his chances of suiting up Sunday versus Houston wouldn't seem promising. Either way, added context with regard to his Week 1 status will arrive no later that the release of the Colts' final injury report of the week.

Colts' Josh Downs: Out for Sunday's game
Coach Shane Steichen said Friday that Downs (ankle) is out for Sunday's season opener against the Texans.
Downs was able to do some individual movement drills off to the side during Friday's practice, but he won't be ready for Week 1 action and thus will target a potential return Sunday, Sept. 15 against the Packers. In Downs' absence versus Houston, fellow WRs Adonai Mitchell and Alec Pierce should see added opportunities behind No. 1 receiver Michael Pittman.

Colts' Josh Downs: Not seen at Thursday's practice
Downs (ankle) wasn't spotted at Thursday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.
Though officially listed as a non-participant in the Colts' first practice of the week, Downs -- who is bouncing back from a high-ankle sprain -- noted that he ran some routes during Wednesday's session, while suggesting that he's "real close" to returning, per Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis. With another DNP looming Thursday, what, if anything, Downs is able to do Friday figures to be pivotal in terms of his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Texans.

Colts' Josh Downs: Iffy for Week 1
Head coach Shane Steichen noted Monday that Downs is "progressing well" while rehabbing his left high-ankle sprain, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
That said, it's unclear if Downs will be able to practice Wednesday, with the wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Texans to be determined, per James Boyd of The Athletic.
