Colts Get a Subtle Shot From Josh Downs After His Trade to The Chiefs
· Yahoo Sports
All Josh Downs wanted was to get away from the Indianapolis Colts via a trade, and he finally saw that happen on Tuesday,
The Colts sent the wide receiver to the Kansas City Chiefs along with a seventh-round pick in the 2027 NFL Draft in exchange for a fourth-rounder and fifth-rounder in 2027.

Shortly after the trade, Downs posted a wordless post on X, formerly Twitter, to sum up what he truly felt after finally getting out of Indianapolis.
The 25-year-old Downs simply searched for the famous GIF of former NBA high-flyer Vince Carter’s reaction to his jersey getting retired by the Toronto Raptors and hit send.

Downs Goes From Struggling Colts to Super Bowl Contenders Chiefs

Downs is now in a much better position to win games, compete for a division title, a spot in the NFL playoffs and a Super Bowl.
Kansas City is 6-2 after nine weeks of football and is coming off a 35-12 demolition of the New York Jets at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in Week 10.
For what it’s worth, Downs had played against the Chiefs this season, as Indianapolis lost a road game versus Kansas City, 33-30, via overtime in Week 2. For what it’s worth, Downs led the Colts in that contest with 72 receiving yards on seven receptions and nine targets.
Downs, who is on an expiring contract, has 354 receiving yards and a touchdown on 33 catches and 57 targets in nine games played with Indianapolis this season. He entered the league in 2023 as the Colts’ third-round pick (79th overall) in 2023.
