Head coach Shane Steichen noted Monday that Downs is "progressing well" while rehabbing his left high-ankle sprain, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
That said, it's unclear if Downs will be able to practice Wednesday, with the wideout's status for Sunday's game against the Texans to be determined, per James Boyd of The Athletic. If Downs is unavailable for Week 1, look for Adonai Mitchell and Alec Pierce to see added opportunities this weekend behind top wideout Michael Pittman.
