osh Downs and Ryan Kelly going for a 3rd straight day.

Guys I haven’t spotted or don’t look to be practicing;

-Braden Smith
-Mo Alie-Cox
-Ashton Dulin

Related Players: Michael Pittman Jr., Alec Pierce, Adonai Mitchell

Pittman mustered all of 6.7 fantasy points in Downs' Week 13 absence, so his re-joining the lineup certainly doesn't boost his fantasy stock. Consider him and Downs stay-away WR4s as Anthony Richardson's troubling completion rate makes the passing attack an aggressive fade.

Lots of personnel news for the Colts...

*WR Josh Downs will practice today.

*C Ryan Kelly and LB Jaylon Carlies will be designated for return from IR today.

*RT Braden Smith is still dealing with a personal matter and is not expected to play at Denver on Sunday.

This should raise the floor of every other receiving option, but that floor is admittedly still quite low. Bump Pittman up into WR3/4 territory.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Downs is considered week-to-week and that he will be a long shot to get cleared to play against New England so it looks like the Colts will be without him in Week 13, according to the post. As the story points out, Downs had three catches for 27 yards before leaving Sunday’s game. He has 53 catches for 594 yards and four touchdowns in 10 games this season.

Things aren't trending well for Michael Pittman Jr. to see the field in Week 10, but we'll have to watch for Friday practice reports to confirm. Josh Downs is the only reliable pass-catcher in Indianapolis as it stands, and should be in strong lineup consideration regardless of Pittman's status.

Even though Pittman has be cleared, he should remain on benches in all but the deepest leagues. This would have been a decent spot if Tua Tagovailoa were playing on the other side, but this game could easily turn into a slog.

It's not a great matchup against a Packers team that looks to be starting Malik Willis, but Anthony Richardson once again proved that he's willing to throw bombs early and often. It'll be a coinflip as to whether Pierce or Mitchell is the one who will come down with a deep ball in Downs presumptive absence, but the correct guess could equate to a WR3 week. They are both extreme boom/bust options.
