Josh Downs (ankle) considered 50-50 to play Week 2
Josh Downs is considered 50-50 whether he plays on Sunday against the Packers.

Fantasy Impact

Downs was able to practice fully on Friday, but high-ankle sprains can linger and the team wants to make sure he has zero issues before he plays. It is possible he is a little limited if he does make his season debut.

Fantasy Impact

Williams has been dealing with an ankle injury throughout practice this week, but will now take the field for head coach Dan Campbell. The dynamic wideout could potentially feast against a Tampa Bay secondary ravaged by injuries to begin the season on Sunday.
