There is a specific timetable for how long Downs could be out. In Ian Rapoport’s original report, he called Downs “week to week” but added that he didn’t believe that this was a major injury. The Colts have their bye after the New England game, so it is possible that Downs could be ready to go for the final stretch, but we will wait and see.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs has been ruled out for Week 13 against the New England Patriots with the shoulder injury that he suffered in Week 12

Center Tanor Bortolini, right tackle Braden Smith and wide receiver Ashton Dulin were also ruled out. All four players did not practice this week. Steichen also said left tackle Bernhard Raimann will return after missing two games with a left knee injury.
