Did you ever imagine Downs finally getting his dream move?
The Colts granted his trade request, and Kansas City sealed the deal, sources say.
In return, Kansas City parts with its 2027 fourth‑ and fifth‑round selections, receiving Downs and a 2027 seventh‑rounder. For my money, this swap gives the Chiefs a savvy boost at receiver.
Now in his fourth year, Downs logged 33 catches for 354 yards and one interception this season. Last campaign he posted 58 receptions, 566 yards and four scores over 16 games.
A 2023 third‑rounder, he’s amassed 231 grabs for 2,494 yards and 12 touchdowns across 56 outings.
The Chiefs, hungry for more depth, add a fresh weapon who could suit up for 18 games, since Kansas City’s bye is already past while Indianapolis waits until Week 13. Could this give them an edge in the stretch run?
