Josh Downs said he plans to make his season debut on Sunday against the Bears.
Fantasy Impact
Downs has been sidelined the first two weeks of the season due to an ankle injury. It is unclear where he’ll fit into the Colts wide receiver room. Alec Pierce has stepped up the first two weeks of the season. Downs is a stash for now for fantasy managers.

Justin Herbert working through ankle injury, expected to play Week 3
Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday that QB Justin Herbert is “working through” an ankle issue that he suffered in Week 2 vs. the Panthers and is expected to play on Sunday vs. the Steelers.
Fantasy Impact
Good news here for the fifth-year QB and the Chargers’ offense, as it looks like Herbert’s injury is not too serious. Having everyone healthy for the team’s Week 3 game in Pittsburgh will be crucial in hopes of taking down the 2-0 Steelers.
